Skysports.com continues its review of the latest Silvervision WWE DVDs by taking a peak at the career of a true WWE legend - Ric Flair.Nature Boy Ric Flair - The Definitive Collection
Released on DVD - September 15 Many, not all, but many, consider Ric Flair to be the greatest wrestler ever to have graced the squared circle. And if you are among the many - this DVD is a must-buy. Flair's highest and lowest moments are all encapsulated in this scintillating three-disc box-set which covers almost every inch of his entire glittering career. The Nature Boy bowed out in emotional fashion at WrestleMania XXIV and his emotional farewell address on RAW the following night completes the compelling action at the end of disc three.
Disc one is a complete review of Flair's life in a documentary format - including the plane crash which nearly brought a tragic premature end to his life.
The first disc lasts approximately two hours and includes an overview of all his key moments from his debut to his farewell.
And once the first disc has finished whetting the appetite, the second disc hits you with six of his most memorable matches from the early stages of his career - 1982-1989.
My favourite match-up on this disc is his 1988 bout with Sting at Clash of the Champions. I won't ruin it for those who don't know the outcome, however this gruelling tussle had absolutely everything and is a must-see.
The entertainment fails to relent on disc three as another four of his most pulsating matches hit the screen - from his Madison Square Garden match-up with Roddy Piper to his last ever bout against HBK at WrestleMania XXIV.
