Atticus Chaos 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2008 Reid's gone? Shame. I thought he had potential, unlike his brother. I also heard Ric was having personal problems and his (third) marraige might be on the rocks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's training with George South (alongside Ricky Steamboat's son and Bobby Eaton's son): Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

majormayhem1 0 Report post Posted August 8, 2008 Hey, I thought Ric Flair retired. What's with this "available for independant bookings" crap? Sounds like he's been getting some bad ideas from Brett Favre. Har har har. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PILLS! PILLS! PILLS! 0 Report post Posted August 8, 2008 Gone from WWE developmental, but not from wrestling. He's training with George South (alongside Ricky Steamboat's son and Bobby Eaton's son): That, right there, is f'n cool. Isn't Curt Hennig's son also getting into the biz?

dubq 0 Report post Posted August 8, 2008 I think Curt's daughter is. Not sure about his son, though. EDIT: I guess both are, actually. From Wiki: Hennig's son Joe is currently pursuing a career in pro-wrestling, and is being trained by Harley Race. Joe Hennig has wrestled as talent-enhancement on WWE television and has taken to wearing a style of singlet similar to that of his father. Hennig's daughter Amy is also currently pursuing a career in pro-wrestling and is reported to have undergone a one week evaluation training session with WWE's former development territory, Ohio Valley Wrestling and recently WWE has signed her to a development deal.

Obi Chris Kenobi 0 Report post Posted August 8, 2008 What's this I hear about Flair wanting $50k to do a shoot interview, or is my mate just taking the piss? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Diamonddust 0 Report post Posted August 10, 2008 It didn't take Flair long to accept bookings... He'll be in Pell City, Alabama (Just east of Birmingham) on August 23rd doing a guest appearance for Global Championship Wrestling (Benefiting the family of a fallen police officer) http://www.gcwpro.com (I bring this up because this is my "local" promotion and been following it for years. They have a history of being able to bring in some pretty big names every now and then) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lil' Bitch 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2008 In an interview with Charleston.net, Ric Flair commented on his departure from WWE. “WWE and I parted on the best of terms. This gives me the chance to pursue new opportunities … corporate speaking engagements, product sponsorships, autograph shows for my loyal fans (who made me what I am today) and film and television roles. My agent and I are very excited about what the future holds.” He also stated that there are no hard feelings with Vince, “I’m 59 years old and I’ve never stood on own two feet without wrestling. I need to find out if I can. Vince can’t prop me up forever." “I just can’t leave the money on the table anymore,” said Flair, who was forced in recent months to forego a number of business opportunities, including a 30-city autograph signing tour of old NWA towns that would have netted him in excess of $300,000.
