It is not uncommon to witness people with youngblood thinking too little of old people. It doesn’t matter if the old dude they are talking about is a legend, like Ric Flair. But, while the era of many former WWE wrestlers is long gone, Flair’s era may never go away as long as he lives.

The ‘Nature Boy’ Ric Flair has always been a man who never backs down from a challenge. A recent video renewed this fact amongst pro wrestling fans as Flair defeated the mega-popular ‘Icing Game’. While several younger folks thought that the old-timer didn’t have it in him, the 16-time WWE Champ instantly proved them wrong.

Ric Flair took to X and posted a video wherein he was surrounded by young men who tricked him into looking at an iced beer. This was followed by one of them explaining what Flair had to do next as a challenge. But, what the men didn’t know was that Flair didn’t just know the rules, he also ruled the game.

The tweet carried the caption, “I’m Not An Amateur! I’m A Professional! WOOOOO!” True to his word, the Nature Boy sat on a knee and started gulping down the ice-cold beer as the men howled “Chug! Chug! Chug!” around him. 

But, while they expected Ric Flair to fail, the WWE legend emptied the bottle and tossed it behind him. This was followed by his “WOOOO!” cry and his iconic dance moves. While Flair may never back down from a challenge, he does back down against public opinion.

Although Ric Flair isn’t on the payroll of AEW, fans care less about that, than the existence of a contract between both parties. While the Nature Boy was also subjected to a lot of hate as a reason, former WWE superstar Tyrus sided with Flair.

Appearing for an interview with Fox News with Ric Flair, Tyrus addressed the legend and reminded him of his greatness. He also held that the Nature Boy is one of the last shining stars of pro wrestling who are still alive. Thus, he does not need to apologize to ignorant fans who don’t even know what is happening.
