Ric Flair to be backstage at Tuesday’s WWE SmackDown Live

Although Ric Flair has been butting heads with WWE, he is scheduled to be backstage at Tuesday’s SmackDown Live TV event in Atlanta, Georgia at the State Farm Arena. 

The reason for him being backstage is due to him taking part in a Q&A for WWE sponsor Cricket Wireless live from backstage at the SmackDown event with his daughter, Charlotte Flair. 

The Q&A will stream live on Cricket Wireless’ Facebook page and other social media platforms at 12 PM Eastern. 

This comes at an interesting time for Flair as the legendary pro wrestler has tried to trademark ‘The Man’. WWE Raw women’s Champion Becky Lynch has been using ‘The Man’ as her moniker on television for a while now.

Flair feels that he should receive a royalty from the company as he believes that he established the moniker. Flair is also slated to appear on the October 4th episode of SmackDown that will serve as the premiere show on FOX.
