'Nature Boy' Ric Flair Casually Dropping He Used To Smash Halle Berry After Her David Justice Divorce Is Why He's The GOAT
MTO – Interviewer: Any celebrity riders of Space Mountain [Flair’s euphemism for sex with him]?
Ric Flair: [Ha] several dozen. Do you want me to start with Halle Berry?
Interviewer: Oh Halle Berry rode Space Mountain?
Ric Flair: Ha Ha, of course she did. She was in Atlanta and she [had] just got divorced from Dave Justice.
Interviewer: Wait are you telling a real story right now?
Ric Flair: Would I have to make up a lie?
Ric Flair is one of those treasures of the excess of the 80s/90s in a way that everyone should appreciate whether you like pro wrestling or not. Feathered hair, fancy suits and Rolexes, just such a creature entirely representative of his time:
And now, a couple decades later on some podcast he does long after the lights have stopped shining so brightly, he’s not out there being The Nature Boy living to excess that rappers still namedrop any more. All he’s got now are his stories and memories. And what stories and memories they are when they include casually dropping that peak fame and youthful sexiness Halle Berry “took a ride on Space Mountain.” And the funny thing that he’s not even mentioning…she got divorced from David Justice in 1997 and her film credits didn’t look quite as accomplished as they would a few years later:
BAPS, Steven Seagal, and the Flintstones movie where she was kinda sexy and ended up being a bad guy at the end. So Ric Flair not only got Halle Berry, he got her as he was WAYYYYY more famous (as pro wrestling also hit its peak with cable ratings) and she had all this youthfully enthusiastic “trying to make a name for herself” fucking mixed with some extremely volatile and exceedingly aggressive post-divorce fucking…I mean you can make a case you’d take Swordfish/Monster’s Ball Halle Berry overall but it seems to me that Ric here got himself peak sexuality Halle Berry too. That “fuck you raw dog loving that you’re the exact opposite of my ex in the back of a limousine” Halle Berry. He didn’t even plan it and ended up hitting the stock right as it was about to hit the clouds. That’s Ric Flair, a pro wrestling legend:
