- WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair gave a great 12 minute interview to CBS News where he talked about a variety of subjects including the movie 'The Wrestler', how the business takes a toll on you physically and mentally, the desire to still be a part of the shows and much more.

Calling WWE "the greatest show on Earth," Flair said that whenever they went to Europe it was like The Beatles were there. Flair invited CBS News' Jeff Glor - who was conducting the interview - to tell his wife and come on a 10 day European tour next time around to experience it himself!

Flair also talked about drugs in wrestling and how he still follows to this day what his three best friends - Batista, Triple H and Shawn Michaels - are doing on television.

Glor brought up the bleeding and the scar tissue on Flair's forehead to which Flair said "I bleed like nobody else" while laughing. "Red is green," he added.

The final moments of the interview were very emotional for Flair as the host talked about his retirement. Tears filled up Flair's eyes and his voice started to crack as he did his best not to cry, unsuccessfully.

"It's tough," host Jeff Glor said. "It's great. It's good. You caught me off guard," the Nature Boy replied. You can watch the amazing interview below.
