Leave it to pro wrestling legend Ric Flair to find the best way to describe the energy drink he recently decided to endorse. 

Flair, who is considered among the greatest wrestlers in history, said it's just a step above of peer Stone Cold Steve Austin. When Austin wrestled, he would often tell audiences he was ready to "open a can of whoop ass." 

Well, Flair has a new can, his new energy drink called, "Wooooo" that is now the official drink of the Cleveland Cavaliers

"We call it a Can of Ric Flair," Flair said, laughing. "Steve's [Austin] got the Can of Whoop Ass. I got the Can of Energy." 

Flair's energy drink is mushroom-based that features natural ingredients. Flair said it keeps consumers from having to drink multiple cans per day to stay energized. 

It is the equivalent of a star NCAA freshman entering the NBA draft: one and done. 

"It's that much better than anything else," Flair said. "Monster, Red Bull, it's going to give you that three-hour up and then you fall back down and have to drink another one. You don't need to do that with these. You can do it at 1 in the morning and then cruise all day long ... It's fantastic."
