Ric Flair lived up to his old-school gimmick, earlier this year when he was involved in a romantic storyline with WWE Superstar Lacey Evans. There was a point when many thought he was the one to make the Lady of the WWE, pregnant. Moving on from that controversial angle, he went on to trend on social media for another such reason.
The legendary wrestler trended on Twitter after fans started mentioning him in tweets after a non-PG photo went viral on the platform. A photo of a man, who looked very similar to Ric Flair from behind was seen performing ‘oral sex’ on a woman in that picture. Fans believed that it was the wrestler, mostly due to the similarity with his hair. While the veteran was never identified, several Twitter users have noted that it looks like the photo was taken on the Long Island Rail Road in New York.
However, there’s no truth to the link-ups associating with him. Ric Flair took to Twitter to turn down this rumor by tweeting the following:
“This Picture Is As Real As That Other One Floating Around. The Nature Boy Doesn’t Ride Trains! WOOOOO WOOOOO!”

Ric Flair is no more with the WWE
As reported earlier, Ric Flair has parted ways with the WWE after Vince McMahon granted his wish to be released from the contract. He then appeared in the corner of Andrade El Idolo for his match against AAA Mega Champion Kenny Omega at AAA TripleMania XXIX, this past Friday night.
Wrestling INC then reported that they have learned that Ric Flair made that appearance free of cost. He also chartered a private jet to make it to the show, at his own expense. The source was also the first to report that Flair requested, and was then granted his WWE release, earlier this month. There’s not any non-compete agreement between the two parties and hence he is free to appear in any other promotions immediately.
That being said, Ric Flair could soon show up at AEW programming where Andrade is under contract following his WWE release. Andrade’s fiancée and Ric’s daughter Charlotte Flair can’t make any appearance in WWE rival brands for obvious reasons.
