Ric Flair appeared on today’s Busted Open Radio to talk about generational talent. There’s been a big changeover in WWE as the company has moved into a new era with new talent rising to the top of the card.
During the show, Flair remarked that he keeps up with some of the veterans from the 90’s and 2000’s but he hasn’t heard much from Stone Cold Steve Austin, as he appears to be keeping busy at home in Texas.
Flair said, “I was talking to Ashley (Charlotte) yesterday and I said it’s just a whole new time in life. It’s funny but – I don’t mean funny by we don’t talk to him but, like Steve has just disappeared. I would talk to him once a week, twice a week, once a month. I haven’t talked to Steve in a year.”
Flair said he still talks to other legends. “I talk to Taker occasionally and I see Foley at signings and HBK but if you look at all the guys that were around, the names – the generational guys you would call talent or the great workers or biggest stars or Mr. WrestleMania or whatever, they’re all gone. It’s a whole new era guys.”
For anyone who wants to keep up with Stone Cold, check out his Instagram page. Austin has been posting photos and videos of him taking care of his cats. It seems like he’s got life all figured out. Check out the video below for the latest adventures of his cats Pancho and Macho.
