A lot of guys in our business have tremendous physiques and they dress differently. I'm not knocking that. But I'm 6-foot-1 and weigh 240 pounds. My persona is not that of a muscleman. I sell myself as a wrestler and a businessman. -- The Tennessean, 1989

There were grumblings that, at six feet and 245 pounds, I was too small to hold the title.

5'8 ish guy said on 21/Nov/255’11 3/4 seems to be the perfect height for his before accident heightHe looked like he could be 6’0 at times but than there was times where 5’11.5 seemed more reasonable. So I’d say go in the middle of that range and say he was a weak 182 cm guy if not just under 182 cm WILL THOPSON said on 5/Nov/25NOW RIC FLAIR IN 5 FOOT 8, MAYBE HE WAS 5 FOOT 10 OR 11 IN HIS ABSOLUTE PRIME BUT THAT'S IT!!!!!!!!! bmb said on 13/Sep/25@Rob I am surprised Jerry "The King" Lawler doesn't have a page yet, especially considering his Andy Kaufman feud. Could he be about 5ft 10, if not 5ft 9.5, if Ric Flair was 5ft 11? Click Here bmb said on 21/Aug/25Forgot to add. Considering he claimed 6'1" when he was 5'11", perhaps when he claims 6'2" maybe he was closer to 6'. Pablo Scanal said on 17/Aug/25Big rod do you think ric flair deserves an upgrade if you look the image below this comment i honestly think he could be at least 5'11½?Editor RobFor his peak, that figure is probably closer to his very early days. Pablo Scanal said on 29/Jul/25I think Ric Flair Was Right When He Said He Was 6'2 Because Here He Clearly Looks Taller Than 6'0½ Listed Dusty Rhodes But Idk If Its The Angles But Anyways You Can Clearly See That Its At Least A Centimetere Is His Peak Height Getting A Major Upgrade Big Rob? Photo: Click Here Pablo Scanal said on 26/Jul/25Big rob Do you think ric flair was taller than 5'11 because before the plane crash he did look similar height with 6'0½ Listed Dusty Rhodes?Editor RobNever really thought of him as a big 6ft guy, but then it was 1975 and from reading that he damaged his back in a few places, maybe his peak height needs looked at. bmb said on 17/Jul/25Rob, how tall does Bob Backlund look here? Click Here 6ft 1? 6ft 1.5?Editor RobAround 6ft 1, hard to tell if taller, though I would say Bob's posture was overall looser than Ric's. Al Jones said on 16/Jul/25I met Ric at Philadelphia Intl airport by in 1999. Truth be told, he was no taller then 5’10”. viper said on 15/Jul/25He was never 6-0 5'8 ish guy said on 12/Jul/25to be more specific I’d say 1970s: 6’0 1980-90s: 5’11 1/2 2000s: 5’10 2010s: 5’9.5 Current Height: 5’9.25 5'8 ish guy said on 12/Jul/25Peak height (Before the accident: 6’0 During His Prime: 5’11 1/2 Current: 5’9 1/4 Hans fikkelden said on 19/May/25He Looks Taller Than 6'0½ Listed Dusty Rhodes Click Here I Actually Think He Was At Least 5'11½ Before His Plane Crash Hans fikkelden said on 18/May/25Big rob I think ric flair was at least 5'11¼ Click Here Ik The Angles Are A Bit Off But He Did Look Taller Than 5'11 Before His Car Crash I Think I Was 5'11¼ 5'11½ Or Even 5'11¾ And Also In That Photo Dusty Rhodes Has A Higher Heel Than Ric Flair Sharpshooter202 said on 4/Sep/23Flair is lying about his height & weight which is common in wrestling. No chance he weighed 240 in his prime. More like 190-200 @ 5’11 in his prime. Henry said on 28/Apr/23Ric needs a MAJOR height upgrade for his peak height. The plane crash that caused back compression injuries happened in October 4th, 1975. Only photos and video before October 4th, 1975 can be used to judge Flair's peak height. Ric broke his back in 3 places. T10, T11, and T12 Ben Bell said on 25/Apr/23Said on the Rogan podcast before the plane crash he was 6’2. I met him a few times over the years and can’t see that. At the best he looked 6’0 in the 80’s, was probably just under. 5’9 when o met him in 09. Looked basically the same height the other times I met him as well. Editor RobThe claim seems unbelievable. Ray (5'10/177 cm) said on 9/Dec/22Not sure if you agree with this rob but I’m thinking his younger son Reid could have been around the 6’2 area it was hard to tell though cause in the picture he was leaning his head but I think he could’ve definitely been over 6’0 Editor Robnot really familiar with Reid unfortunately. 1984here said on 23/Nov/22Yeah next to mike Tyson recently and he’s shorter than mike. 5-8.5 possible IR said on 23/Nov/22how about Jerry Lawler? I would like to see a page on him. here's my height listing for Jerry Lawler. 5'10.5" (179cm) peak 5'10" (178cm) current The_Diesel said on 6/Sep/22Lol , maybe when he was 13 years old he was 185/190. Flair was between 230 and 240 most of his career. Wrestlers can get really deceptive heights in boots etc and a lot of guys they're next to on TV are 6'3 to 6'6, Flair was 5-11 most of his life. Some people lose a lot of height with age and injuries and Flair is one of them. GLENN S said on 28/Jun/22Rob, Don't most Pro Wrestlers exaggerate their Height & Weight to appear larger than life for The Young Fans of The Sports Entertainment Show? I saw Ric Flair in person back in 1979. He appeared to be about 5'10 or maybe 5'11. Although Lean & Muscular, He certainly did not look like he weighed over 200lbs.IMO, he looked more like in the 185-90 range. Editor Rob Many do it, but the wrestling federation itself sometimes forces their hand by giving them an inflated height. Danimal said on 27/Apr/22Here is Ric from a few days ago with 5'10" Mike Tyson (who has possibly dipped below that mark with age and surgery). Ric is looking in the 5'8" range. He was about 5'11" at his peak: Click Here Tech noir said on 3/Apr/22He’s 5-9 now or just under. Peak a weak 5-11. CrazyTempo said on 11/Jun/21Looks a typical 6’0 peak and 5’9.5 current PeteH said on 21/Mar/21I saw Ric years back at a high school wrestling match when his late son Reid wrestled for Blair Academy.I am 5'10.5" Ric was a an 1.5" taller with his boots on.....I believe he was 5'10" at that time. berta said on 14/Mar/21haha i think if he would be hones he would cliam 180-181 peak and maybe at the very most 215 pounds. RP said on 11/Dec/20@ 6’3” Julian... I am 5’11” & I fluctuate from 223-228 lbs (without shoes & clothing) “true weight” . I’m very muscular, strong & fit. But, as you can see from pics I posted of myself & Ric on here. I do not look overly large at all. I just look like a muscular & “ kind of big guy” at basically 5’11” & 225 lbs. Same goes for peak 5’11” & 230 lbs Ric Flair. We are what you call “Street Big”....we look big next to the average person on the street. However, we are not that big in the world of big time athletics or a profession like pro wrestling. Around average people, peak Ric Flair was a pretty big man. Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 29/Sep/20@Julian I believe RP though. Many people don't realize how big Ric was in his prime. He had massive legs especially. I've noticed that he never had that "small guy" or "vanilla midget" label unlike Shawn Michaels and Bret Hart. 6'3 Julian said on 5/Sep/20@RP 230 is a hell of a lot for 5’11 RP said on 5/Sep/20@ 6’3” Julian... Ric was a legit 230 lbs in his physical prime years 1980-1995. 5’11” to 5’11.25” & 230 lbs. FACTS! Met him in 1997 when he was right at 5’11” & every bit of 230 lbs. also met him a little over a year ago (pics to prove it have been posted here before) and he’s now 5’8.5” to 5’8.75” & about 205 lbs. FYI...I also met him in 2007. In 2007 he was about 5’10” & 220’ish. 6'3 Julian said on 1/Sep/206’1 240? More like 5’10 175 I would’ve assumed Ben Bell said on 26/Jul/20Met him a few times over the years. Saw him at a convention last year and he was 5’9 max. Gobgghbfffcnkj said on 25/Jul/20On Raw next to Orton, Ric Flair barely looked 5’7 Gobgghbfffcnkj said on 24/Jul/20Seeing how much shorter he looks than Orton, unless Randy has a very small head Flair doesn’t look much more than 5’7 now Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 3/May/20@Littlelee They give her more than just 3", as they have a thick platform at the front. 3.5" is more likely. She's likely around 5'11.5" with those heels, as she looks 1.5" taller than a shoed 5'10" Ric, so 5'8" barefoot. Littlelee5ft6 said on 17/Apr/20Charlotte would only get 3 inches from these heels. I still think 5ft 9 barefoot is right and 5ft 10 in shoes shes still quite a bit taller than him and in a video of him with Charlotte and alexa bliss she looks about a foot taller than bliss and 3 or so inches taller than ric shes deffo 5ft 9 VitoCheng said on 7/Mar/20Current:5''10 Peak:6'0"5 CZV said on 29/Feb/20Alright thanks Rob, he might also be worth a site here CZV said on 27/Feb/20@Rob how tall does Rusev look here beside Ric? Click Here Editor RobCould be 5ft 11 Comment95 said on 24/Feb/205ft 11.5 is more likely in his prime TheBat said on 23/Nov/195'11.25" peak. 5'9" range now. Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 17/Sep/19If Ric's 5'9", there's no way that Charlotte can be 5'9" as well. Even in this pic, she's wearing massive heels yet doesn't look a whole lot taller than Ric. RP said on 16/Sep/19And there’s about 10-12 pics on my page showing it. RP said on 16/Sep/19@ Rob, if the fella with long hair is truly 5’9.25” ?? Then Ric was wearing generous footwear the day of that pic. Given him an additional min 0.5” to maybe 0.75” ..I’m telling yeah...I had 2.5” on Ric...but, I did have what I believe to be a 0.25” footwear advantage that evening. RP said on 16/Sep/19@ Rob, LOL @ chap that claims 5’11.5”!! He’s not even 5’11.5” in shoes! 🤣🤣 I can promise you! Me exact heights are 5’11.125” to 5’11.25” in the morning. 5’11.25” fresh out of bed @ 6 AM, and I quickly got 5’11.125” by 9 AM. And by 2 PM I’m typically under 5’11” @ 5’10.875”....and by 6 PM I’m always 5’10.75”, and you can see the difference of me & that fella with 5’8.5”-ish Flair. I had on 1.4” footwear that night. In the footwear I had on, I measure 6’0.25” in the evening. Editor RobHe was of course an inch smaller than 5ft 11.5. RP said on 16/Sep/19@ Sotiris, yeah Big Guy...that’s exactly what I pegged him at was 5’8.5” at first! Then, I studied his footwear for a couple of minutes, and I “think” I had a 0.25” footwear advantage. So, I leaned to 5’8.75” as an absolute max. But, I’d never trust Flair’s inner footwear either...wink, wink 🙃😉 he’s got a rather large head for an average height man, I must say too, LOL! RP said on 13/Sep/19Note: and my wife is 5’1.25” evening barefoot. RP said on 13/Sep/19@ Sotiris, Thank you so much. Yeah, I’m blessed with a great & sweet family. Yeah, Big Guy...in person I could only give Ric a (MAX) 5’8.75”...factoring in I had a 0.25” footwear advantage. He’s possibly even only 5’8.5”. Your thoughts. Knowing my true evening barefoot height is 5’10.75” on the nose?? Sotiris Gravas said on 11/Sep/19@RP Here are some of your pics w/ Flair, dude (lovely family; God bless)... Click Here , Click Here , Click Here Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 8/Sep/19@RP Losing only 3/8" is very unusual, especially for a guy your height. Most lose around 3/4". RP said on 7/Sep/19Had issues posting the pics of Ric & my family. However, they are on social media & can be seen on the public forum of our FB page @ Tonya Randy Pyne Again, I’m right at 5’11” Morning 5’11 1/8” Mid afternoon 5’10 7/8” Evening 5’10 3/4” Ric is MAX 5’8 3/4” now. Note: I had a 1/4” footwear advantage on Ric that night. RP said on 27/Aug/19I hung out with Ric for about 30 minutes this past weekend. He’s only 5’8.75” barefoot IMO now. Based on my own 5’11” barefoot. Wouldn’t be shocked if he even only measured 5’8.5” late afternoon barefoot. I have several pics. I don’t know how to post photos on this site? Rob? I also met him in 1997 & in ‘97 he looked a strong 5’11”. Also met him in 2007, he looked 5’10.5” in 2007. In 2019 he’s only a MAX 5’8.75” afternoon barefoot IMO. Guys, give me the 411 on how to post these pics. Thanks. Editor RobIf you use imgbb.com to upload it, you can paste the link into a comment. Sotiris Gravas said on 8/Aug/19First off, supposed 6'2.5" Bren looks shorter than 6'1.5" Eddie Hall... Click Here LOL. Now that that's out of the way... Fairly recent pics of listed 6'1 Todd Gurley w/ 5'8" Flair... Click Here , Click Here , Click Here Gurley w/ 6'2" Von Miller (slight tiptoe)... Click Here Flair is max 5'8" now; anything more is due to enhanced footwear. I said it the first time back on 9/Aug/18, and I'm saying it again on 8/Aug/19. (Guess I should have waited and said it tomorrow. Too late now. I blew it!) tree said on 26/May/19When he was younger with 6ft3 Kevin Sorbo Click Here The Ben said on 29/Apr/196'2.5 Bren and Flair Click Here Sotiris Gravas said on 20/Mar/19Flair w/ 5'8" Ludacris, footwear visible (2018)...

Click Here Henry Faggart said on 16/Mar/19At his peak, he claimed to be 6ft 1in tall. Current height is 5ft 11in. Sean said on 15/Feb/19In 2017 with 6'4 3/4" Charles Barkley Click Here Junior Koo said on 12/Jan/19Flair is now 5,9 pnly. He an Sahwn Michaels are 5,10 only. RJC said on 6/Jan/19Never looked tall in the wrestling world and often borderline diminutive. Peak 179cm Now 174cm Quite a drop but all those years on the road and have just seen a very recent video of him from less than a week ago where he looks incredibly frail and with a boost from running shoes. RP said on 10/Dec/18Barrett, yeah, in the late 80’s to early 90’s PWI had Ric Flair listed at 6’1” & 243 lbs & Hogan @ 6’7” & 302 lbs. possibly the other of the article was going off script & kayfab??? But, in 1990, Flair was over 5’10”...I’d say at least 5’11” minimum in 1990? And every bit off 225-230 lbs. 5’10” & 220 is too low. Hogan 6’5” ‘& a bit of change & 295-300 lbs in 1990. Barrett said on 10/Dec/18Always remembering reading the PWI magazine in 1990 and there was a interview with Ric and they were asking about the dream match between Flair and Hogan and it was noted in the interview Flair has no chance as he was only 5'10 and 220 pounds and I remember thinking they were wrong Flair is at least 6'1 and aroubd 245 pounds but thinking back now was Flair really only 5'10 and only 220 for real? Manpreet Singh Virk said on 21/Oct/18Flair is currently 5'11. Leno said on 8/Sep/18Peak was more like 5'10, he wasn't much taller than the 5'9 Anderson Ali said on 22/Aug/18@Rob how tall is Con Goer and how recent was the photo taken? Many thanks. Editor RobI seen that con goer in July again in one queue and made a mental note - he was over 5ft 9 easily, so Flair (a couple of years ago) could still manage to look over 5ft 10. CasperGhost said on 19/Aug/18At an autograph signing session in Dec. of 2017 and Ric walked directly in front of me. Now I’m a solid 5’11” and there’s no way Naitch is currently 5’11”. Maybe in his prime he was that tall or even 6 feet but now I would say no more than 5’9” and change. Plus , he was wearing a pair of (very nice) dress shoes with a bit of a heel. I was in my old beat up running shoes so I was probably a tad under 6 feet as we stood. Sotiris Gravas said on 9/Aug/18I don't see Flair as having ever been more than 5'10.5"(same height as Jerry Lawler who looked around 5'10.5" next to 5'7" Bill Dundee. (A real shame about Lawler's son, R.I.P.) Current height is around 5'8". Jake j said on 1/Aug/18Ric Flair going to be around 5ft8 tree said on 18/Jul/18He looked 179cm but at the age 53 he may have lost 1 cm Click Here RP said on 24/Jun/18Randomdude7...Clint Eastwood has lost “over” 3” inches of height, with not one single back surgery. Randomdude7 said on 3/Jun/18@Murt lost 4-5 inches in height??? not possible even with multiple back surgeries not possible Murt said on 1/May/18Ric in his peak was for sure 6’1 but now a days he’s 5’8-5’9 Dubstep said on 9/Apr/18Here he is next to Nia Jax and Charlotte. Nia looks around 5'10, Charlotte appears to be wearing big heels so Ric Flair gets a 5'9 from me. Richard Legaspi said on 1/Apr/18he was billed at 6"1' i don't think he was ever over 6 feet.. 5'11 max now at 69 he looks like he is only 5'8" standing by offset offset is 5'9" in the video "Ric Flair drip" Danimal said on 18/Mar/18Rob, Ric Flair has lost a LOT of height. He's no longer 5'9". Here he was next to Sting pre-height loss: Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here This is Flair next to Sting today: Click Here Click Here He's at best 5'8" today and that's being generous. Editor RobDanimal, here is Ric Flair with a fellow con-goer Con Goer. That chap is 100% taller than me in person.... MS said on 16/Mar/18Ric flair with 6-1,5 - 6-2 Ultimate Warrior in early 90ies, only about 1,5 " betweeen the two: Click Here With 6-7,5 Undertaker (early 90ies): Click Here With 5-10 Chris Jericho: Click Here With 5-10 Charlotte (without high heels this time): Click Here Only 5-11 peak height and estimates 5-9 and minor for Ric Flair now is nonsense at all, he was and is much taller than that. Jim Hopper said on 8/Mar/18You would be shocked if you met him,I did in Miami few years ago in a restaurant. Im 6-2". He is way way way shorter than me! At first I truly thought it cannot be him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Listed at 6-1" but trust me hes a short guy in truth. Id say 5-9 no more. Christian-6'5 3/8 said on 5/Feb/18@Danimal Sting’s a bit more than just 6’1” IMO. Like 6’1.25” or 6’1.5” max. But I agree that Ric looks nowhere near 5’9” in that pic. Danimal said on 5/Feb/18He's MAX 5'7"-5'8" today in 2018 (he was 5'11" in his prime). Here he is next to 6'1" Sting in 2018: Click Here Leno said on 4/Feb/18I would say he was actually 5'10 in his prime, and they gave him 2 inches putting him up to 6', when in fact he was 5'10. Now, I think 5'9 is what is the real deal. Faza said on 4/Dec/17Remember ric was billed as 6ft1 back in the day in wwe knew that was inaccurate today he looks maybe 5ft9 range miko said on 3/Dec/17Hart was 6'0 in his prime and Sting is still near 6'2. joe### said on 24/Nov/17rick rude 6´3.25-5 and flair 5´10 Click Here David said on 8/Nov/17Bio says 6’1”. I passed by him in Atlanta Airport about 20 years ago I swear he seemed about 5’8” tops. Commanding presence still. Anonymous said on 29/Oct/175,9 sound right. I would also believe 5,10. Depending on how tall Charlotte is. I could see a strong 5,11 to 6,0 in his peak. Danimal said on 3/Sep/17With 6'1" Sting last year: Click Here (he's looking to be MAX 5'8" these days).

Click Here Anonymous said on 4/Feb/17Here Click Here andre said on 29/Dec/165ft10 prime barefoot and 5ft8 barefoot today Attitude said on 18/Nov/16Ric Flair is 5'10" if Dibiase is 6'3" (if footwear is is in the same range). Click Here Attitude said on 29/Oct/16He's a guy who was about the same height as the Midnight Rockers. A really average guy for his time which is actually interesting since back then they loved to have the guys well over 6 feet be champions. In the WWF he looked pretty small, especially when Mr Perfect was standing near him. Isn't Macho Man around this height too? Him and Flair looked even when Macho wasn't wearing cowboy boots (which it seemed like he wore those 24/7 outside his ring gear). Rob, do you think wrestlers liked wearing cowboy boots to make them seem taller in a more casual setting? Hogan, Bret Hart, Owen Hart, Macho, HBK, Dr Death, and many others wore them constantly. I wonder if they wore elevators too... Tubbs said on 7/Oct/16Saw a match from 1984 where Ric was listed as 6'3"......if you look at his early promos he does look a big guy, holding his own with 6'2" plus guys..... tybor said on 1/Oct/16Looks about the same as his daughter these days heightchecker34 said on 20/Jul/16Peak Flair was 5'11.... current day he is in the 5'9 range. Losing 2 inches by the age of 67 is perfectly understandable, in addition to all the flat back bumps he took lol! BorkLaser said on 12/Jul/16Met him on Sunday. I would have guessed 5'9.5"-5'10" for him RP said on 2/Jul/16Rampage...Black Jack Mulligan RIP...was a legit 6'6" barefoot in his prime...and was billed anywhere from 6'7" to 6'9" during his 20 plus year wrestling career. TapeWormMeasure said on 23/Jun/16Flair always seemed like a 5'10 guy even in his prime. Wasn't that much taller than Lou Albano who was probably 5'8-5'9 Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 8/Jun/16Rob, any guesses for this guy? Click Here He was billed at 6ft9 but I think he was really 6ft6-7 Editor Rob 6ft 9 based on that photo seems at least 2 inches too much. James B said on 26/May/16LOL rampage because he clearly has 5 inches on flair Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 25/May/16Shane looks 6ft2. He's about 2in taller than Vince (6ft today) James B said on 20/May/16Rob How tall would you say Shane looks compared to flair? Editor Rob possibly 3 inches taller at times in the clip. James B said on 18/May/16Rob flair looks taller than 5'9 for sure compared to Shane Click Here Unless Shane is not as tall as we think? Editor Rob yeah it depends how tall Shane really is. Jimmy said on 20/Mar/16Hei Rob, I found this about ric flair with triple h: Click Here The question is, if Ric is 175/180cm while HHH about 190cm wtf in this video they look the same height!! (minute 2:00) Editor Rob flair looked a few inches short there, maybe depending on the angle it could look less at the time range you mentioned. The Ben said on 21/Nov/15I met him again this year and he looked pretty much 5'9 to me. Rob has this right. I could see a 5'11.5 peak. Kevin said on 17/Nov/15Interesting met Flair in the early 90's and he was taller than me by about an inch, last year seemed about an inch shorter, guessing all those years of wrestling took 2 inches off him, think 5'9 is about right, he does seem so much bigger on TV somehow, least was for me, one of my all-time favorites... Kourosh said on 29/Sep/15dont you think flat 5'9 is so harsh for him? he was 3 inches taller than weak 5'7 Stewart. i cannot believe that im actually little bit taller than flair woow. very much to my surprise. Danimal said on 30/Jun/15Flair and 5'10" Jerry Lawler at 20:00 in 1982 (their peak heights): Click Here Danimal said on 20/Jun/15Rob, you are so off on this listing. Flair was 5'11" PEAK and 5'9" today. Here he is in 2005 next to 6'0" John Cena: Click Here Editor Rob those figures I think are probably more believable, he does look nearer 5ft 9 than 10 today. cdk said on 13/Jun/15PEAK 5'10.75" TODAY 5'9" Danimal said on 1/Jun/15Ned on Ric Flair Met him today, he visited sheffield, england he's about 5'9.5 max, but i think his peak height would have been 5'11.5/6 He was never over 5'11" peak. Piper had minimum 2" on his in the late 70's/early 80's. He's also MAX 5'9.5" today and Piper's around 5'8". Scary, but true. Ned said on 28/May/15Met him today, he visited sheffield, england he's about 5'9.5 max, but i think his peak height would have been 5'11.5/6 Frank Ruiz said on 4/May/155'10 or 11. Hogan had back surgery in the past few months, he has been 6'3 or 4 for years but he believes he's 6'5 again with good posture Shamrock said on 9/Mar/155'10 flat nowadays rob? Editor Rob he could be heading there. SaveUsY2J said on 14/Sep/14Attitude, Steamboat is significantly closer to the camera in that photo. klyyde said on 26/Jul/14Click Here @rob how tall do you think flair is from this recent shot with listed 6'3 hogan? looks around 5'10 but your listing still could be accurate. Editor Rob could be 5 inches smaller, or a bit less in that photo Attitude said on 4/Jul/145'11" peak since he is barely taller than 5'10" Steamboat. Not quite 6 feet. Click Here kimo said on 19/May/14In the mid 90's I was in the Atlanta airport with Rick Flair. He is short. I was actually shocked at how short he was only because his stats always listed him as taller. I would say he's only 5'6 or 5'7 at best. I suspect he wears lifts. Mike said on 27/Apr/14Definate 6 feet and still probably at least 5'11" now. Can't really buy that he's dropped 1.5 inches from peak. It's not like he's in his 80's. He still looks quite fit. Vegas said on 27/Jan/14with 6'4.75 measured ben roethlisberger yesterday Click Here Vegas said on 12/Jan/14jerry lawler was 5'10 and flair didn't look nearly 2 inches taller than him in 1982 Vegas said on 8/Jan/14he was noticeably shorter than steve austin back in 93 on flair for the gold so wasn't 6ft peak. there is a shot of him and a measured 5'11.5 nfl star from the weekend, flair looks about 1.5 inches shorter The Ben said on 1/Jan/14I've just been watching some old NWA/WCW and I'd have to say a peak 6ft. I would say today he may just scrape 5'9. I had a pic with him and I on here, I'm just over 6ft and I had at least 3 inches on him in 2010. He was roughly the same height as Arn Anderson who doesn't seem to have lost much height and now there's a solid 3 inch difference. Powerhouse said on 19/Dec/135'11.25 peak, now 5'10 flat. Brad said on 17/Jul/135' 9.5" 1 foot from me on saturday. Nice guy. KJK said on 17/Jun/13Ric was obviously at least 5'11+ in his prime, but nowadays I wonder if he's even 5'10. He is 64 years old and he has taken a lot of damage on his body during his wrestling years. miko said on 27/Apr/13I still think Ric is 5'10 range in good posture, and can look 5'9 at times. king said on 24/Apr/13I met Ric Flair in Daytona over ten years ago while working out in a gym. The late Macho man was there as well. Ric stands at @ 5'7". I am 5'10" and he wasvat least 3 inches shorter than me. This is a fact. dicksock said on 29/Mar/13I'd say he peaked at 5'11" and is ~5'9" now. By the way, RIP Reid Flair. Anonymous said on 19/Mar/13Ric Flair 5' 11". WHOOOO!!!!! enough said. The Ben said on 3/Feb/135'9 today. Red said on 29/Dec/11peak 5´11" today just under 5´10" Tom101 said on 13/Nov/115-11 mark imo. Parra said on 8/Nov/11he is about 5'11 Vegas said on 4/Oct/112 weeks ago, josh reddick is listed 6'2 in baseball and Dustin Pedroia is listed 5'9 Click Here the AMAZING Babushka said on 21/Sep/11Yeah, he was probaly 5'11" 20 years ago.. had some height on Benoit, and was about the same height as Bret hart the AMAZING Babushka said on 19/Sep/11looked 5'9" against sting the other night. and he looks old out there, hunched over a little. I cant belive he still wrestles, but gotta give him some credit. Not saying he is good out there, but he is good fror his age. Godred said on 9/Jul/115`11 peak - 5`10 now. joes said on 12/May/11I think his peak height was 1,86,today probably 1,84,-1,85,no away he is 1,79 -1,84 as some say here Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 27/Apr/11Peak 184cm Today 180cm Dan said on 5/Jul/09the wrestling indsury tends to exagerate heights. The Danimal said on 22/Jun/09Flair is struggling with 5'10" today based on that pic with The Ben. Tom said on 22/Jun/09Flair is 5 ft 11. I know him personally. Goldberg and HHH are 6 ft 2 and Batista is 6 ft 2.75 FACT. The Ben said on 22/May/09For years i though i was 6'1.25... I was measured on charts at 2 gyms i worked in that we used to measure to members on for health tests.Ive just took my shoes off now, its 6pm and ive been up since 8am this morning and im bang on 6ft... Last time i measured i was 6,0.25 and that was a few weeks ago.Flair was not tall! Kall said on 21/May/09I guess question is how tall is Ben? if the above pic is anything to go by, I'd say Flair is bang on at 180cm, given some modest footwear. Ben could be anything like 6'1 to 6'1.5" Red said on 7/May/09Wrong Anonymous, Ben isn TELLEM said on 7/May/09thats not even two inches anonymous, even if ben backed up farther away from the camera and stood straighter he'd have a sold 3 inches over flair. flair is lookin a weak 5'10 there. Anonymous said on 7/May/09you look about 2 inches taller but you are closer to the camera, his eyeline would be level with your mouth if you were 3 inches taller The Ben said on 6/May/09Hopefully ive got this right... me and flair.. Im not stood straight by any means and i'd say i look 3 inches taller then flair...ive had people on here call 5'10..i guess that makes flair 5'7 or under..Click Here Shock of Electric said on 28/Apr/09bigd, I would say:Flair 5'11"HBK 5'11.5"Kennedy 6'0.5"HHH 6'2.75"Batista 6'3.75"Their height bills aren't lies if you accept the concept of measuring athletes in the footwear they compete in. All of those men basically fill out their bill when they put boots on, except Batista who has boosted to 6'6" during his feud with Undertaker, who is about 2" overbilled imo, also a result of Hulk Hogan's 2" overbill from his peak of 6'6". This also coincides with guys like Sid and Nash, etc. bigd said on 24/Apr/09Click HereThe bare foot ric flair(5'10) next to HBK in boots(probably same height bare foot) next to Mr Kennedy billed at 6'2"(looks 5'11, 6' in boots at best in the vid) next to 6'4" HHH(6'2" at best) next to the self proclaimed 6'5" batista(6'3" at best) now someones telling lies..... bigd said on 24/Apr/09I went back stage at the O2 wrestlemania revenge tour. It was surreal. Gail kim, Teddy Long and MVP came off as quite shy and generally quiet too. MVP billed as 6'3" is a bit of an exag. He's 5'11" like me. Maybe they all have height complexes like all of us after all they're only human. I know they're deliberatley billed to be larger than life but still, 4 inches is just an insulting exaggeration. Loma said on 6/Apr/09At wrestlemania,I saw two things today.1st christian was bit taller than cm punk,who wears lifts.Making christian atleast 6'0-6'1 barefoot.2nd Flair was atleast an inch under rourke who is 5'10-11.Flair is 5'9.5-5'10.His son reid was arrested last month...reid is same height as ric and his police records say 5'11. Shock of Electric said on 1/Apr/09Ric Flair is more than likely barefoot in that RR08 video. He is definitely still 5'11" based on the enormous number of fan/worker pics I've seen, especially people whose height I know.If Michaels is 5'11" (even listed 5'11.5" here) then Triple H has to be at least mid 6'2". There are countless examples of him being at least 3" taller than Michaels. Batista is also about 1" taller than Trips making him at least mid 6'3". TELLEM said on 19/Mar/09flair and steamboat at their peak, full body shot: Click Here Vegas said on 17/Mar/09flair, snuka, piper and steamboat all side by side last night Click Here Clay said on 3/Mar/09He's leaning in that shot next to 6'0.5 Alex but its obvious Kurt Angle is 5'10 in his barefeet. M.o.r.g said on 18/Feb/09Kurt angle doesnt even look 5'10 in shoes on this site. Red said on 17/Feb/09Christian looks 6 TELLEM said on 17/Feb/096'0 in shoes for christian? the man IS 6'0 barefoot. Vegas said on 16/Feb/09here is christian and kurt angle, a 6ft at most in shoes christian would leave angle at 5'10 or under at most in shoes Click Here M.o.r.g said on 16/Feb/09christian 6'0-6'1 barefoot? er no christian is 6'0 at most in his shoes. Tim said on 15/Feb/09We all roughly know how tall and heavy Flair is or was but as a weightlifter,my question is does anyone know his tale of the tape? What is or was Flair's Chest size and arm size? rafter said on 1/Feb/09i actually agree with amit.Clay,justin was no way as high as 6'0.During the x-factor days,he looked shorter than sean waltman[5'10-5'11].5'10 is max FOR jC.Moreover he builds himself 5'10 in indy's. Clay said on 30/Jan/09Billings are fudged both ways though. Christian was billed at 5'10 for the longest time, yet he's a 6'0-6'1er barefoot. amit said on 19/Jan/09I agree with danimal,former ecw star justin credible is same height or bit taller than flair.Justin was billed either 6'0 or 5'10,mostly 5'10....he was bit shorter than sean waltman,i guess.Click Here Clay said on 18/Jan/09HHH is 6'2. Danimal said on 8/Jan/09Flair is MAX 5'10" today and quite possibly under that at 60 years old. Here he is with MAX 5'11" HBK. Check him out next to 6'1"-6'1.5" HHH and 6'2.5"-6'3" Batista: Click Here TELLEM said on 5/Jan/09yet he was taller than kurt angle 3 yrs ago...by an inch...maybe hes 5'10.5 now Deter said on 5/Jan/09wwe had big show at 399lb on his homepage, they have jesse ventura at 6'2 currently Click Herei guess big show was never more than 399lb or jesse taller than 6'2 The Ben said on 5/Jan/09Danimal your totally correct, i measured myself this morning and i was just under 6'1.I met flair a couple of months ago and he was 5'10 tops, he could have even been shorter, it wasnt until i got my photo with him developed that i saw the difference, ill see if i can get it up on here. Danimal said on 5/Jan/09Flair has NEVER been over 5'11". The WWE even had him listed at 5'11" and 220 pounds when he returned to the WWE. It was on the homepage for a few months and then taken down. I believe that he is around 5'10" today. JAY said on 4/Jan/09i met ric at a book signing and he was about 3inches shorter than me and im exactly 6ft. Scott said on 1/Jan/09I stood behind Flair at a convenience store in Charlotte and I am 5'10. I doubt he is much more than that and I had on a pair of old wore out Chuck Taylors! He had on boots. He is probably shorter than 5'10. Hugh said on 23/Dec/08Arn Anderson 6ft0.5.Flair 5ft11.75. Anonymous said on 8/Dec/08Flair said in his autobiography he was 6'0", which was probably his peak height.Now looks about 5'10". That picture with Flair standing next to Kimmel, no way Kimmel is 6'0" or what he says 6'1". PaleCabbage said on 16/Nov/085'11 sounds about right Stuart Cowie said on 16/Nov/08he looks a good few inchs smaller than batista whos about 6ft4ish, i reckon hes 5ft11 ish Red said on 13/Nov/08Clay says on 11/Nov/08 Kimmel's 6'1 guy.No, for sure he Clay said on 11/Nov/08Kimmel's 6'1 guy. Red said on 1/Nov/08Kimmel says hes 6 Clay said on 29/Oct/08Kimmel's leaning, but Flair looks 5'10.5-5'11 there. TELLEM said on 29/Oct/08judging by the pic with jimmy kimmel flair can still be 5'11 Vegas said on 29/Oct/08flair and jimmy kimmel Click Here Ben said on 18/Oct/08Just met flair today in doncaster england, got a photo woth him and he's 5'10. I was actually pretty shocked... Naitch is only 5'10!!! whooooo! Clay said on 14/Oct/08John O'Hurley is 6'3'' though. Flair is looking 5'10-5'11 these days there no doubt about that. Someone who actually held his own next to O'Hurley was Batista, who was also towering over Booker T on that show. lookatfamilyfeud said on 10/Oct/08If you go to youtube and look at Family Feud he is 5+ inches shorter than John O'hurley. I say 5 ft9 but hey I'm biased Im 5 ft9 with shoes on ;) WEG said on 9/Oct/08I saw Flair in the airport in 1986 and he was about my height, 6'1". About a month ago he walked past me at a signing and he definately is shorter about 5'10" now. Steve said on 8/Oct/08Flair now looks about 5'10"-5'11". He said in his book he was 6'0". I've always heard 6'1" though. I always thought Tully Blanchard was the closest thing to Ric Flair, as far as the Four Horsemen goes. The way he dressed, interviewed, and wrestled, Tully was actually my favorite out of the Horsemen. Clay said on 27/Sep/08Genius Flair is standing in front of Jim there. dicksock said on 22/Sep/08If Jim is 5'11.5 then how is Flair under 6'? Hugh said on 18/Sep/08My brother saw Flair over 6ft. He said he was 6ft0.75. He also said he was in sneakers. hmmmm. Hugh said on 17/Sep/08Fair enough Danimal. Danimal said on 17/Sep/08Hugh says on 16/Sep/08 I suppose I was half joking with Arn. He's 182-183cm.He WAS about that height. Is no longer. Hugh said on 16/Sep/08I suppose I was half joking with Arn. He's 182-183cm. TELLEM said on 2/Sep/08Danimal says on 1/Sep/08 TELLEM says on 31/Aug/08 arn 6'2? him and flair were just about the same height...Arn actually was taller in his younger (PRE-MAJOR surgery days). His WCW days he was a shell of the man he used to be and was FORCED to stop wrestling because of major back, neck and hip problems. In the 1980's he was a force to be reckoned with and was at least 6'0" if not 6'1". WCW he was down to 5'10"-5'11".i can buy that for arn Danimal said on 1/Sep/08TELLEM says on 31/Aug/08 arn 6'2? him and flair were just about the same height...Arn actually was taller in his younger (PRE-MAJOR surgery days). His WCW days he was a shell of the man he used to be and was FORCED to stop wrestling because of major back, neck and hip problems. In the 1980's he was a force to be reckoned with and was at least 6'0" if not 6'1". WCW he was down to 5'10"-5'11". TELLEM said on 31/Aug/08arn 6'2? him and flair were just about the same height... Hugh said on 30/Aug/08Arn is 6ft2ish. He's apparently a lot taller in person. Clay said on 22/Aug/08Khali made Arn Anderson look 5'10'' and no more these days... TELLEM said on 14/Aug/08arn had tully by 3.5 inches? give me a break...arn was never 6'2...and flair was never 6'1 Snuka III said on 13/Aug/08flair now is 5 foot 10, 5 foot 10.5 at his peak he was 6 foot 1. arn in his prime was 6 foot 2, but his muscle and massiveness made him look taller. jj is around 6 foot 2.ole 6 feet talltully blanchard is 5 10.5 Danimal said on 13/Aug/085'10" today. Peak 5'11". Anonymous said on 13/Aug/08Ric Flair-present tense; around 5'10.5", maybe 5'11". In their primes:Ric Flair-6'0"Arn Anderson-6'0"Tully Blanchard-5'10"J.J. Dillon-6'1"-6'2"Ole Anderson-6'0" Shawn Michaels said on 9/Jul/08I'd say he's about 6'0 now...I know one thing though...I got up close to him once..and he's wide...his hands are huge...just a bigger guy than he looks on tv. Hugh said on 4/Jul/08He's definately no less than 5ft11. TELLEM said on 20/Jun/08greg how is tully blanchard only an inch shorter than ric flair and arn? those guys had two inches on him! 6'0 peak 4 those guys...watch there vids on utube Red said on 18/Jun/08Greg says on 6/Jun/08 Ric Flair 5'11Are you the Greg in the pic with Hogan?I think Flair looks more 5 D said on 29/May/08I'm going with 5'11". He never does dead lifts. But he can rep 225 like it's nothing and he does body squats by the hundreds. D said on 26/May/08Flair goes to my gym and I see him on a daily basis. I'm going with 5'11" to 6'. The guy who said he is 5'7" is full of ****. I'll pay closer attention today and give you a more accurate estimate. Tim said on 12/Apr/08I'm 5'8" tall,I've been next to a lot of 6'0"ers,in 1994,when Ric would have been 44 years old,I met and stood next to him and He wasn't more than a few inches taller than me,so even back then I would say he was 5'11" at the very most. hs2008 said on 12/Apr/08I'd agree with 5'10". He was clearly shorter than Shawn Michaels who's around 5'11" these days. Hugh said on 27/Mar/08Nearer 6ft1 in his prime. 6ft0ish nowadays. Pipes said on 13/Mar/08Definitly shrunk in height. Maybe 5'10" now. tim said on 20/Feb/08yuh he does look 5"11 on wwe.com he is listed at 6-1 he might of been 6-1 back in da day buy as you get older u get shorter. Socom said on 24/Dec/07Humans may not shrink without radical surgery quite as often as people think. However, I believe posture becomes worse which leads to shorter height. Vegas said on 20/Sep/07Click Here BigJim said on 19/Sep/07The Man was in great shape. Hope I can hold out that long. rik said on 27/Aug/07Back in the 80's when he was with the Four Horsemen, he looked about 6'0"-6'1". I think Arn Anderson and Ole Anderson were about his height as well. Tully Blanchard looked a couple inches shorter, at about 5'10". Flair's peak height was probably about 6' or 6'1. Hard to say. chris said on 23/Aug/07I'm confident that Flair was 6-1 in the 70s + 80s ted said on 22/Aug/07Jim looks a bit taller?Ric Flair is actually 5-11.In the night he seems short. I am a big fun i know. He cold be 6 foot in the morning. I measured myself in the morning and i was 184cm but in the night 183.Maybe morning height is a myth?What do you think Rob? Editor Rob every human shrinks, if they claim they don't, they are likely a cyborg. Leona said on 19/Aug/07I am a big fan of Ric Flair and there are two things I know about Ric and that is 1 Ric Flair is serious the moment he steps into the ring and 2 he never and I mean he never lets his fans down cause when he says something he means it and that is my story and I am sticking to it. Viper said on 4/Aug/07Jason said that Flair looked 5-10 1/2 to him in person. That could be spot on. Flair is no taller than a flat 5-11 for sure. Mike said on 4/Aug/07On Tv Flair looks short..opr doesnt look tall but he does look 6 even or close to it with Jim and Jim I think said he had regular shoes on..interesting, where do these 5'10 rumors come from???...lol chris said on 8/Jul/07in his prime height could be about 6'1" Anonymous said on 13/Jun/07Flair is 177-178 cm. In previous Raw he was about 3'' shorter than 184-185 cm Vince McMahon. Craiger said on 1/Jun/07flair I always had at 5'11", though he does look 5'11.5" in the photo above Vegas said on 23/May/07Flair is up to 1.5" shorter than Jim in that photo Danimal!!! I am not buying that. Flair is barely in front and he is slightly taller. Danimal said on 22/May/07I give Flair between 5'10" and 5'11" and about 220 pounds in that pic, seeing Big Jim looks about 10 pounds heavier than Flair. BigJim said on 22/May/07That’s me in the photo. In that photo I was 5’11.5” and 230 pounds. Our shoes both looked about the same height. We were both standing straight and tall. I think I may have had half an inch on him at best, but then again you be the judge. Flair per my earlier comment stepped forward for the photo. A great trick I need to remember =). The same day I stood side by side with Cena but he sat for the photo. My recollection is that Cena was as tall if not half an inch taller than I. I would guess that he weighs between 225 and 230. He was wearing the B-Ball shoes but the heel seemed comparable to what I was wearing, although it might explain the half inch. I only noticed because I really expected these guys to be huge. Danimal said on 2/May/07I agree with that Hivo. 5'10"-5'11" seems about right for Flair. He loves his white high heels in interviews, giving him the illusion of a 6'1" man, which he wasn't. Msy said on 1/May/07People with big heads look shorter than they really are, especially from long distance. Notice Flair's head is bigger than Hogan's. Hivo said on 30/Apr/07In Japan, Flair was listed as 180cm(5'11") in the 80s. He cannot be taller than 180cm. mike said on 25/Mar/07Spoke with him before the Rolling Stones Concert in Charlotte in 97. I am 5'11 and he was at least my height. Stood a foot from him while speaking with him for a few minutes. I thought he would be shorter from what I heard. Pretty thick dude with a large head. Danimal said on 28/Feb/07Hogan was never 6'9". Hogan WAS 6'5"-6'6". Flair today is MAX 5'10" and probably a bit of change in reality. In his prime probably just shy of 6'0". Halb said on 28/Feb/07I think Flair should be put below 6 ft. 6'2.5'' JK said on 27/Feb/07I think he is 5'11.5'' - weak 6ft, but definetley can't see him under 5'11.5'' today, Kasem Abo Khadra said on 22/Feb/07Rick flair's height seems to be only 5ft 9 I think, Also in the WWE Biography rick flair height is 6ft 1 Anonymous said on 31/Jan/07The king of overstatement Vince McMahon, when quizzed aboot a poss Flair/Hogan match in the 80's said there was no point because Flair was a 5 ft 1 0 in 220lb chap and Hogan was a 6 ft 9 in 330lb monster:od...funny whe u see the real height diff between them:oD Danimal said on 6/Jan/07I'm sure that he is NO longer taller than 5'11". YES. He may have been taller in his younger days. The same goes for Roddy Piper, who also has clearly lost height. Alex said on 6/Jan/07Flair was never over 6'0 I don't think. Today I think he's not even 5'11. 5'10.5 I say because I remember he was only a a tad taller than Angle who is about 5'10. Kevin said on 6/Dec/06My friend and I walked past him once and we figured (without shoes) Flair's got to be was 5'7", 5'8" max. He was only about an inch taller than my friend. ralph said on 17/Oct/06Remember, Big Jim said that flair was a bit taller than him. Mr.E , flair hasnt lost any height, he is in a very good physical form. Danimal said on 10/Oct/06He's not over 5'11". The WWE listed him at 5'11" at one point. He's NOTHING more than that!
