WWE Receives Emmy Nomination For Ric Flair Documentary

Wooooo! Becoming Ric Flair, a Peacock documentary, has been nominated in the Outstanding Long Documentary category. The winners will be announced that Lincoln Center in New York City on May 22.

WWE and Peacock's "Woooooo! Becoming Ric Flair" documentary is in the running for a Sports Emmy Award.

The Flair documentary is one of five nominees in the Outstanding Long Documentary category at the 44th Annual Sports Emmy Awards. The full list of nominees was revealed on Tuesday.

"After Jackie" from the History Channel, "Citizen Ashe" from CNN, "NYC Point Gods" from Showtime, and "The Redeem Team" from Netflix are the four other documentaries nominated in the category.

The Flair documentary premiered on Peacock in December 2022. The synopsis below:

16-time World Champion and 2-time WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair is one of the most prolific and controversial superstars in professional wrestling history. Flair is a true American icon: from his famous 'Woooo' that is still heard in stadiums and arenas throughout the US, to his influence on hip hop music. At 73 years-old Flair remains a constant in American pop culture, but who is the real man behind the outrageous persona? Finally, Flair reveals all, opening up about his storied career, inside and outside of the ring, over the last 50 years. Hulk Hogan, Mike Tyson, Post Malone, Stephen A. Smith, and Charlotte Flair are among those who join Flair in telling the tale of the man behind 'The Man.'

Flair tweeted today: "Wow, It’s Such An Honor To Receive This @sportsemmys Nomination For Best Long Documentary! Thank You @WWE For The Opportunity To Share My Life With The World Through Woooooo! Becoming Ric Flair!"

The Sports Emmy Awards ceremony is taking place in New York City on Monday, May 22. They're separate from the Primetime Emmy Awards, which are traditionally held in September.

Ric Flair about the documentary and the names that will be part of it - 29th November 2022

Ric Flair talked on "To Be The Man," about the documentary and who will be part of it. “I’m thankful because the reason I’m throwing this in is because Steve is in it a lot,” Flair said, as quoted by pwmania.com.

“Taker is in it a lot. Shawn’s in it a lot. Megan is in it a lot. Ashley, Post Malone, Stephan A. Smith. It is the most accurate depiction of my life ever imagined put together. It took two hours, but I swear to God, I sat there and watched it and I just, I cried, laughed, cried, laughed, but it’s so spot on”.

Many more names will be found in the story. Flair is obsessed with his project and wants things to be perfect. “As promised, they didn’t pull any punches,” he continued. “Not one. They didn’t pull any punches and that’s what makes it so good.

It’s what I felt. It’s what I’ve experienced. It’s what I’ve gone through. It’s what I’ve done to myself. It’s the bad choices that I made in life. The good choices I’ve made in life.

My family responded honestly. It talks about the airplane crash. It talks about me getting hit by lightning. It talks about me being sick. I was blown away by it”.
Aaron Dean Eisenberg was the topic of conversation. Flair talked about the movie The Iron Claw and the role of Eisenberg.

“I don’t know much about him, but I know they called me to talk to him on the phone and I was traveling and never got to talk to him, so I haven’t met and I haven’t talked to him. But I’ll tell you this, if they do an accurate depiction of what the Von Erich family went through, this is going to be one of the greatest stories ever told in wrestling history because there was so much damn history with that family”.
