Who doesn't love the Ric Flair, really. Today on the House floor:
Thank you Mr. Speaker
I would like to honor the career of a man whom I am proud to call both a constituent and a friend.
Ric Flair’s professional wrestling career of 36 years, in which he entertained millions of people around the world, recently came to a close.
He will forever be known as an innovator, a pioneer, and perhaps the greatest that his industry has ever seen. By any standard, Ric Flair is a living legend.
His name is recognized all over the world, but he calls Charlotte, NC home.
On his way to being named a record 16-time world champion, Flair became famous for his bleached blond hair, designer suits, and charismatic on-stage persona, while dishing out his trademark chops—and of course, the dreaded Figure Four Leglock.
On March 29, 2008, Ric Flair became the first active wrestler to ever be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.
Often imitated, but never duplicated, Ric Flair’s legacy will forever be synonymous with the world of professional wrestling.
A fixture at Carolina Hurricanes and Panthers games in my home state, the joy and emotion Ric Flair’s very presence evokes will certainly continue on for a very, very long time.
Today I honor the outstanding career of the “Nature Boy”—and congratulate Charlotte’s favorite son—Ric Flair.
WHOOOO!
"She even did the Whooo!" exclaimed a huge momentary fan. "That's more representative of her constiuents than anything she's done in awhile! That was glorious. She refers to the Figure 4, she referred to the Figure 4 on the House Floor!"
