Ric Flair has had a very memorable 2017 from having a health scare that nearly took his life to a revealing look into his personal life during an excellent ESPN 30 for 30 special. Flair also made headlines talking about his sex life in ways that most people normally don’t, which shows he’s a man that has no problem opening up his life to anybody.
Flair’s latest appearance in the news is dealing with an issue he had with his former management team, Legacy Talent and Entertainment. According to TMZ, Flair claims that Legacy stole about $46000 from him and he wants it back.
The story notes that Flair received $25,000 from First Row Films, which is the company that produced the ESPN documentary on his life, but he was never informed of it or given his cut of the money.
Flair also claims he saw a $12,000 royalty advance from a company called Jake’s Fireworks that he signed an endorsement deal earlier this year and he never saw that money either.
When Flair reached out to Legacy to find out what happened to the money, they told him they were using the funds to pay legal bills. Flair thinks that’s a lie and that he never allowed Legacy to do that.
We hope Ric gets the money he is owed if what he claims is true. It wouldn’t be a surprise if he cuts a promo on Legacy Talent and Entertainment on social media in the near future because that’s the kind of thing he does better than anybody.
As for Ric’s next appearance in the wrestling world, he’s heading to Greensboro, North Carolina for WWE’s Starrcade live event on Saturday, November 25 to support his daughter Charlotte Flair, who is the Smackdown Women’s Champion. It’s great to see him being active again. Woo!
