Ric Flair was filmed verbally abusing restaurant staff.

On May 5th, Ric Flair took to social media to call out staff at Piesanos Stone Fired Pizza in Gainesville, Florida after being asked to leave the restaurant. In the post, Flair said he encouraged to leave because of an “issue” with the kitchen manager taking too long in the bathroom.

After mentioning that he’d just spent $1500, the Nature Boy implored his followers to never go to the establishment.

I Spent $1500 At @PiesanosSFP To Be Disrespected More Than I Ever Have In My Entire Life. After Taking 20 Pictures With Customers And Staff, I Was Asked To Leave Because Of An Issue I Had With The Kitchen Manager Taking Too Long In The Bathroom. I Would Highly Recommend That Anyone Who Wants To Enjoy A Relaxing Time In Gainesville At A Nice Restaurant To Never Visit This Place! WOOOOO!

With the incident showing no sign of going away, footage has now emerged of Flair clashing with a member of the restaurant staff. In the clip, Flair insists he’s done nothing wrong, but then refers to a member of staff as “d*ckhead,” and tells another staff member he’ll tip them $1000 if they tell the person he’s arguing with to “kiss my ass.”

As the video continues, Flair takes issue with being told he won’t be served any more alcohol but repeats he’s only got an issue with the one member of staff. He proceeds to call the person in question “dipsh*t” twice.

Growing increasingly annoyed Flair tells the staff member to “talk to him outside like a man.” In response, the person says they won’t as they’re “on the clock.” Flair replies they’re on the “p*ssy clock.”

At this, another customer challenges Flair, but he’s warned not to make the situation worse by staff.
