Ric Flair has been a force to be reckoned with in the wrestling world since the 1970s. And according to sports icons from today's generation like LeBron James, Ric can teach you a thing or two about how to maintain a lifetime's worth of "swag."

Now that the Nature Boy is old enough to collect Social Security checks, he stated on his IG account on Friday that he has no plans of retiring in the near future. He posted a pic of himself flexing his (huge) bicep with the caption, "I. Will. Never. Retire."

The 16-time world heavyweight champion recently signed a new contract to remain a commentator on WWE Television, which locks him into their fold and maintain his visibility to wrestling fans for years to come.

His other motivation for not seeking a golden handshake is because he claims that he wants to see his daughter Charlotte, a multiple-time WWE women's champion, compete in Wrestlemania 33. Plus he wishes to see Charlotte match up against Ronda Rousey in the ring for the April 2, 2017 event. He stated about his dream matchup against Rousey, "I would love to see Charlotte vs Ronda Rousey, which I think would be huge. I know she will be in the main event somewhere, and I think they can make that work, but as you and I both know, Ronda has to win, I just know that Charlotte will be in the main event somewhere."
