WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair did a promo in front of the fans on Rampage that was taped after Dynamite and he’s been getting some negative comments about it.
According to those who were in attendance at the tapings, Flair said something along the lines of, “18-28 no boyfriends no husbands meet me at my hotel room.” Flair has used a version of that line in his promos for decades but this time he’s been getting a ton of negativity about it on social media.
Flair took to Twitter/X to issue an apology to Tony Khan and he said that if he’s embarrassing the company then he’s willing to walk away. Flair signed with the company a few weeks ago as part of a deal to promote his “Wooooo! Energy” drink. Flair later confirmed that he’s under a 2 year deal and that he would be with Sting during his retirement tour.
On X, Flair posted the following:
“I Am So Tired Of Hearing All This Negativity! I Don’t Need To Work, And I Don’t Need The Money. Can’t I Simply Enjoy Being By My Dear Friend @Sting’s Side For The Next Few Months Without So Much Hatred? I Know I’m Old, But That Doesn’t Mean I Can’t Enjoy Life! I Have Earned The Right To Do Whatever I Want & I’m Exactly Where I Want To Be! I Appreciate Everything @TonyKhan, But I’m More Than Willing To Walk Away If I Am Embarrassing You And Your Company. All I Can Say Is I’m Sorry!”
