“The Nature Boy” Finally Airs

After what seems like a long delay, ESPN has confirmed the air date for its 30 for 30 documentary about “The Nature Boy” Ric Flair. Aptly titled “Nature Boy,” the 30 for 30 episode will air Tuesday, November 7, at 10 p.m. EDT.

In a statement from ESPN, 30 for 30 Executive Producer John Dahl said the documentary film was created after working with director Rory Karpf on other projects and realized Flair “would be a fascinating subject to explore for our first feature-length 30 for 30 on a pro wrestler.”

Karpf had previously interviewed Flair on the topic of sports villains and later discovered he wanted to do a film about “The Nature Boy.” He explained:

“I grew up a huge wrestling fan in the 1980s and I was captivated by Ric Flair. It’s been a personally rewarding experience to tell the story of arguably the greatest wrestler of all time. Ric’s story transcends the wrestling business, and my hope is that it will appeal to wrestling and non-wrestling fans alike.”

The documentary film features an in-depth conversation between Karpf and Flair during a 16-month span. Interviews were also done with Arn Anderson, Baby Doll, Hulk Hogan, Ricky Steamboat, Shawn Michaels, Sting, Road Warrior Animal, Tully Blanchard, Triple H, The Undertaker, and members of the Flair family.
