Kevin Wachloz/Nailz enough said I always loved that story about him trying to get work with WCW and Flair, who was head booker at the time, telling him that their roster was set and they weren't hiring at the moment. Flair: "Sorry we're set right now" Nailz: "Well fire somebody I really need a job!" I also find it funny that he's pretty much the Greta Garbo of professional wrestling. No interviews. No appearances. Nothing. I remember about a year ago John "The Berzerker" Nord (who was guarding the door when he attacked Vince) was doing an interview series on YouTube chronicling his time in the WWF and him and the guy doing the interviews said they were working on trying to get Nailz as apparently Nord is one of the few people that still keeps in contact with him and knows where he lives. Unfortunately the guy running the interviews unexpectedly passed away like a month later so nothing came of it.

Antonio Inoki. Maybe the only promoter more insane than Vince.

Johnny K9 was pretty nuts. From trying to legit smash a beer bottle on his head to driving in 20 degree weather to shows in a jeep with the doors removed and the top off. I loved that DSotR episode that was basically "this guy would have been a great guy except all the times he was an asshole"

And was a Nazi, which is pretty ridiculous in and of itself. Which gives all his talks about American pollution in his gimmick a more disturbing bent it you think about. Yeah. That ONE promo.

Didn't Punk run a cult, shave people bald and cover someone in their dads ashes? I'd say that's more ridiculous than a media rant and a (sorry some people) pretty tame Instagram post lol I'd say Benoit and Dynamite Kid, but that takes the thread in a slightly dark place! Maybe the crazy promoter who died surrounded by prostitutes and cocaine? Herb Abrams. He was definitely a character both on and off camera though. He died doing what he loved: hookers and blow.

I'd still say it's a tough call with Warrior.

And was a Nazi, which is pretty ridiculous in and of itself. He also apparently was a deeply closeted gay man, as he had a tattoo above his ass cheeks something to the effect of "no f****** allowed" or something. "Exit only" He also made some very odd music that sold gold as a single and some poetry, which barely classifies as poetry. Larger than life really, in all the oddest and worst ways. He had a very odd charisma, but had a lot of it. Come to think of it, it's odd how small his world view was after he had been travelling all across the States and Japan for better part of a decade.

Given the amount of slack he's been given because of his legendary status, I'd say Ric Flair is the winner.
I don't know of any other wrestler who got away with as many things as he did for as long as he did.
Yeah, people can point to guys like Shawn Michaels, but he was only a nightmare for roughly 4 years.
How many incidents did Flair have in WWE after his return where he somehow kept his job? The plane ride incident? The bleeding virgins promo? The road rage incident? The two sledgehammer promo? Blading after it was banned? Multiple drunken meltdowns at media and public events?
And after all that, Flair has shown resent towards how WWE treated him. He was given far more rope than most were ever given, only because others were marks for him. And all of this is BEFORE he has behaved over the last decade or so.
