Ric Flair Reveals Idea He Pitched For Storyline With Lacey Evans

A number of weeks ago Ric Flair returned to WWE programming, and he kicked off a storyline involving himself, Lacey Evans and his daughter Charlotte Flair.

The storyline saw Flair feuding with Charlotte Flair while aligning himself with Lacey Evans, but the angle has apparently been cut short due to Lacey’s pregnancy. During a recent appearance on Busted Open Radio The Nature Boy said that he had some ideas for the feud, but they would have involved him getting cleared for in-ring work.

“I did have some ideas. The problem was, they wouldn’t want me to get in the ring because it’s so hard to get me cleared because of my health issues. Even though I have been cleared by my doctors, I just don’t think that they are prepared to let me get in the ring. In case something happened, it would never be, like I could have 40 releases, but it would that, why the hell are you doing it? Why the hell did you let him do that?”

According to Ric Flair he wanted to train with Lacey Evans, and he wanted to teach her how to emulate his character, but he couldn’t get approved to get in the ring.

“I actually wanted to, you know, put on sweat clothes and wanted to work out with her, which I thought would have been great. You know, teach her some things and just have her actually emulate my character. Yeah, doing the flips, suplex in, turn around, begging off (laughs). Oh, I had it all written down, but they wouldn’t let me get in the ring. I had the master plan; It would have been fun (laughs).”

For now it seems that Charlotte’s feud with Lacey Evans has been dropped as last week a feud with Asuka was teased on Monday Night Raw. Stay tuned for updates.
