As pretty much every wrestling fan knows, Ric Flair is considered a 16 time world champion by WWE. However, it's less well known that this number has been disputed. If you take a look at his Wikipedia page, there's 19 in total: 9 NWA, 8 WCW, and 2 WWF.
Flair is officially recognized by WWE, TNA, and Pro Wrestling Illustrated as a 16-time world champion (eight-time NWA World Heavyweight Champion, six-time WCW World Heavyweight Champion, and two-time WWF Champion). The actual number of his world championship reigns varies by source, ranging from 16 to 25 titles.
