Ric Flair is undoubtedly one of the greatest wrestlers ever to step inside the WWE ring. Not only did he impress the fans with his amazing wrestling skills, but he also showed off his charm. But Flair’s relation with WWE has turned sour lately. The change occurred after the Dark Side of the Ring episode on the infamous Plane Ride From Hell.
Since then, WWE has removed the Flair references from their programming. In relation to this action by the WWE, Ric Flair recently made a post on Twitter.
