Ric Flair shares his thoughts on Roman Reigns' heel work

Ric Flair is considered one of the greatest heel wrestlers of all time. Today he commented on the work of Roman Reigns, arguably the greatest heel in wrestling today.

On his podcast, Wooooo Nation Uncensored, Ric Flair was today joined by former WCW commentator Mark Madden. The two had a discussion on a multitude of topics, including the upcoming 'EVIL' documentary to be released on Peacock (WWE Network worldwide) with John Cena as its executive producer. The two started rating the work of current WWE Superstars as heels, including Roman Reigns.

"There 3 things that people hate- they hate arrogance, they hate guys who are so damn good looking that they can be as arrogant as they want, and when you have the skill that Roman does, you're really gonna pi** people off," Ric Flair said about Roman Reigns. (28:51 to 29:06)

The Nature Boy then went on to compare Reigns' "good looks" to himself, saying that performers like the current WWE Universal Champion come around once in a while. He even claimed that Reigns does not have the "arsenal" to be a good babyface.

The topic then shifted to the Tribal Chief's partnership with Paul Heyman, and how it initially gave a boost to Reigns' heel turn. Even comparing Heyman to legendary heel manager Bobby Heenan. The 16-time world champion claimed that Paul Heyman is the second-best at promos ever, behind Ric himself.
