Wrestling Inc. and Fightful are both reporting that 16 time World Champion Ric Flair has parted ways with WWE. Sources close the situation are claiming that Ric Flair requested his release and it was granted, effective today.
Ric Flair signed a new contract with WWE last year, and he was making appearances on TV when he was involved in a relationship storyline with Lacey Evans. Plans for the storyline were scrapped after it was revealed that Lacey Evans was pregnant.
