Ric Flair and WWE have agreed to terms for him to return for the next 4-6 weeks. There are several reasons why this has gone down. WWE wants to use the time period as a bridge to keep from bringing Triple H back against Randy Orton as the plan has been to headline them against each other at Summerslam in the Hell in A Cell.
Flair has been pushing hard to come back as a wrestler as financially, between alimony issues with his ex-wife Tiffany and upcoming legal-related costs regarding his son Reid, Flair realizes he's going to be hurting. His belief is that if he "can just wrestle again" he'll quickly make a ton of money to help offset those expenses, so he's completely motivated by what he can make at this point. Flair has been hoping to do some sort of return match in WWE and have their approval to return so he can take some big money offers in Japan. There has been talk of Flair wrestling at Extreme Rules but it's a Vince McMahon call and he hasn't been high on allowing that yet.
Flair has not signed a WWE deal and will still be making all of his independent and ROH appearances.

If allowed, I'd love to see Flair go to Japan and wrestle the likes of Great Muta and Kenta Kobashi.

He could just sign a deal as a manager.

Soooo some of you guys would rather have Flair pretty much go bankrupt with all of his money troubles, than 'tarnish his retirement'.
Give me a break.

Bret Hart was right, Flair can't do anything else with his pathetic life except wrestle. He can't learn a trade or go to college.....just wrestle, how sad.

See, Ric? This is why most people go to college before becoming a wrestler. So that, when you're your age, you can do SOMETHING ELSE besides wrestle.

It's not like Flair can tell the courts to, 'lawlz, hold on fer a while so I canz take a couple years to make moneyz'. Flair NEEDS money as soon as he can get it, people still care about him, want to see him, and he's still a big deal - now you be  ing honest with me, would you rather take a gamble on something that might not pay off, or do something you know how to do, are widely regarded as one of the BEST at, and get paid a pile of cash for doing it? If you guys lost all respect for Flair, you must not have had much for him in the first place. |
