#4 Ric Flair wanted a reign as the WWE 24/7 Champion

The 16-time WWE World Champion Ric Flair is 71 years old right now. He is still pure gold on the mic as The Nature Boy works as the manager of Randy Orton on WWE RAW. Flair achieved a lot of success inside the ring, working for various wrestling promotions.

He returned to WWE in 2012 and has been a part of several high-profile feuds. Flair played a pivotal role in the rise of his daughter, Charlotte Flair, in WWE.

As mentioned ahead, the two-time WWE Hall of Famer had an illustrious career as a pro wrestler, but he still wants to add one more championship to his name before he is done with this business.

In a recent episode of Busted Open Radio, the 1992 Royal Rumble winner revealed that he wanted a shot at the WWE 24/7 Championship. He said:

"I keep wanting them to let me wrestle R-Truth for the 24/7 Title [Laughs]. I'm getting to the level where I'm comfortable. I'm like, 'Can I just get into character one time?' Talking generically is killing me."

The WWE 24/7 title is with Akira Tozawa at the moment and it will be intriguing to see if WWE allows the retired Ric Flair to battle for the championship.
