Ric Flair spoke on his “WOOOOO Nation Uncensored” about Becky Lynch being called “The Man.”
He has gone back and forth with Lynch over this as he came up with the term and reportedly has the trademark rights to it.
He said: “In closing, because I’m so tired of going over it, it’s not even, let’s say hypothetically the number one selling t-shirt for two years in a multi-billion dollar company. So let’s just say they made $30 million. Right, I could find out, it’s not worth it. Ultimately, the people who did that, to me, need to look in the mirror and know that I worked my whole career for that to belong to my daughter or my son. They got to look at themselves in the mirror. They got to say to themselves, ‘Boy, we took something that he worked his whole life, his a** off for, made a joke of it, and gave it away’. That’s all I can say anymore. I’m silenced on the issue, no more.”
He also commented on the recent roster cuts in WWE and defended the company for doing them. Flair said, “It’s a business to them and I don’t know the numbers, but if NXT is not making money, they can’t keep paying people. So I don’t know the answer to that, but I look at the ratings, you know, just like I watch every show I can possible now so I can talk to you intelligently about these things. But the ratings are everything, so who knows.“
