Why should I like Ric Flair?

[Autobahn]

I have read a lot of comments on Flair over the years about how people consider him to be one of the best of all time.

Granted, i only came to know of Ric Flair around 1997 during the WCW years and beyond, so this is all I have seen of him. I havent seen any of Flairs work before this time and am sure that this was considered his 'prime' years from what I know.

So given what I have seen of Flair, I have no idea why it could be justified for him to even be considered one of the best of all time. What makes him as good as he is considered?

Video proof is welcome and encouraged. Thankyou and have a nice evening TPWW.
