NBA Hall of Famer Dennis Rodman has always been associated with pro wrestling. 

In the summer of 1998, he participated in a pay-view WCW event alongside retired NBA superstar Karl Malone and wrestlers Diamond Dallas Page and Hulk Hogan. 

So it's no surprise Rodman, the NBA's original bad boy, remains in contact with several in the wrestling world. 

"I hung with Rodman all the time," wrestling icon Ric Flair said. 

Flair said he met Rodman in cities such as Los Angels, Chicago Charlotte. Rodman even visited Flair and Hogan recently on the west coast of Florida. Flair lives in Tampa while Hogan resides in Clearwater. 

Flair said Rodman arrived with quite the welcoming committee, describing the experience as "electric." 

"I just saw him about a month ago," Flair said. "He's not going to change. He came to see me about three months ago. He pulled up with two Coach buses full of women ... He stopped in to see Hulk in Clearwater. He came to see me the next day." 

Rodman, considered the greatest rebounder in league history, remains one of the NBA's most unique personalities. From dying his hair blonde to dating Madonna to wearing a wedding dress, he was always the center of attention while playing for the Detroit Pistons, San Antonio Spurs, Chicago Bulls, Dallas Mavericks and Los Angeles Lakers.
