WWE Legend Ric Flair Apologizes After Calling Out Son
Ric Flair was recently in the news for all the wrong reasons.
Again!
Sharing multiple tweets, the 16-time world champion targeted his son, David Flair, for using the “Flair” name, which The Nature Boy claims he owns the trademark to.
In his first tweet, Flair threatened legal action against “someone he was familiar with” while bragging about being represented by a $1,000-per-hour attorney who made their living by suing people.
Uploading a separate tweet, Ric Flair revealed that he was referring to his son, David, but had no intention of suing him. He claimed that his earlier post was to remind his son that he could not have the best of both worlds.
While closing his second tweet, he wrote: “You’re 47 years old. Now stand on your own two feet please.” The 77-year-old later deleted the tweets.
Late last night, Flair again took to Twitter to explain that his earlier tweets were related to the frustrations in his life. While apologizing, he also wrote that he would be taking time to focus on his health.

Ric Flair Recently Criticized Ludwig Kaiser Before Apologizing
Ric Flair’s latest rant is not a one-off.
Over the last several months, the WWE Hall of Famer has burnt several bridges, even accusing the Stamford promotion of trying to diminish his legacy by pulling him from his association with Roots Of Fight, an apparel company.
In another instance, where he virtually appeared on The Ariel Helwani Show, Flair claimed that he was banned from attending WrestleMania while pinning the blame on Ludwig Kaiser, who performs as El Grande Americano on Raw and AAA Lucha Libre.
Flair said that he had threatened to beat up Kaiser, who was Tiffany Stratton’s then-boyfriend, after Stratton made remarks about Charlotte Flair’s divorces during one of their in-ring promos.
Flair said that Kaiser complained about it to WWE’s management, who then did not invite him to WrestleMania.
Ric Flair then apologized to Kaiser via a tweet, where he acknowledged his work in AAA Lucha Libre while wishing him continued success.
