Ric Flair is one of wrestling’s living legends. The Nature Boy has been the subject of much controversy throughout his lengthy career. Flair has traveled far and wide and experienced all the highs and lows that come with life in the spotlight.
Ric may have his blemishes, but he is a loyal person. On the latest episode of his Wooooo Nation Uncensored podcast, Flair discussed how he has vowed to never say a bad word about WWE. Ric even walked out on Ring of Honor when they asked him to badmouth the company.
“I refused when Bischoff wanted me to crack on Vince, and I said, ‘I will absolutely never do that.’ Ring of Honor, same bullsh*t with them. They wanted me to get in the ring and say that they were as big and can compete with the WWE. I said, “I absolutely do not do that.’ and I walked out the door. I don’t care what story you hear from anybody. That’s what happened.
That was unconditional. I will never crack on the WWE. Do I have issues with people that work there? Yes. But the WWE pulled me from my head being shaved (in WCW), shamed beyond belief for who I was supposed to be in the business, head shaved and shaved my son’s head.
Oh, my God. Had to get us both right? He thought it was the greatest thing in the world because he was 12 years old. But what a way to be left, and that’s how they left me. That’s history, and that’s bullsh*t.”
Ric Flair has been mostly whitewashed from WWE programming. That doesn’t mean he isn’t still trying to get back into the company’s good graces. Ric Flair refuses to bury WWE no matter where he’s working.
