WWE Legend Ric Flair Forms an Alliance With Tom Brady to Hype up Michigan; Send Clear Challenge to Its Rivals

Michigan got off on a highly dominating game against Iowa, as they were crowned as the Big Ten champions. After the Sign-stealing debacle unfolded, and Jim Harbaugh getting suspended, many fingers were being pointed at the team. However, Tom Brady came to their rescue by supporting McCarthy and Co. before games, along with staying true to his roots.

From taking part in the ‘bet’ moment to delivering the final warning against Penn State, there has not been a single opportunity that Brady has let go of to cheer his college football team up. Moreover, even the Indianapolis Colts, the former team of Jim Harbaugh, came forward to support their former player and his current team by displaying posters in their stadium. Seems that the list of Michigan’s supporters keeps on increasing day by day.

Ric Flair jumps on Brady’s wagon

As if the Wolverines were feeling even a tiny bit of lack of support amidst all these supporters, they have more. The guy who thrashed many onto the ground is here to lift the spirits of Michigan as they celebrate their clean sweep against the Big 10 West leader, Iowa. Giving a fresh spin on the tradition Brady initiated a few weeks ago, this time around the 16-time world champion Rick Flair had some adrenaline-pumping words for the Wolverines.

“To Be The Team, You Gotta Beat The Team… And The Team Is The Michigan Wolverines! Go Blue!” fired Flair, reeking loads of positive energy to aid the Michigan Wolverines. Seems that all the energy worked its miracles, as the team managed to not only score 26 points but also not let the opposite team score a single point.

However, this will not be the first time that Michigan will be celebrating. They started off with coming as unexpected champions, followed by an iconic moment of its own. Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti and Jim Harbaugh. Unfortunately, fans did not get to witness the moment, as Harbaugh requested the trophy to be handed to offensive lineman Zak Zinter.

After all this, almost as a milestone in the ‘Bet’ movement initiated by the Michigan players on social media, Harbaugh yelled ‘Bet’ at the crowd. The change in the air in the stadium was priceless as all fans turned steely with resolution. As they tread on their path, will Michigan fulfill their dream of being crowned the national champions? Or will this tale end in the playoffs just like the last two years? It will all be answered by the team’s performance in the playoffs.
