Ric Flair Addresses Rant Against WWE, Says He’s Not Mad At Them Anymore

Ric Flair has rescinded his rant against WWE over his being pulled from apparel brand Roots Of Fight, noting that he’s not mad anymore about it. As noted, the WWE Hall of Famer went off yesterday on Twitter after finding out he was “no longer allowed allowed to be with [Roots Of Fight] per WWE.” He accused WWE of trying to “kill me and diminish my legacy” and said, “Thank you, but it ain’t happening. Nice try. LFG!”

Flair posted a video to Twitter on Wednesday backtracking those comments and saying farewell to Roots Of Fight and noting that he isn’t mad at WWE for taking it away. Flair said:

“I just wanna take this opportunity to thank Roots Of Fight for letting me represent them over the years. Pretty cool thing to have. Not as cool as being inducted into the Hall of Fame, but it’s amazing how many buy and respect this brand. I think I represented it well. People love it, I’m proud to have been part of their organization.

“I’m not even made at the people that took it away from me. I was at first, but I understand business. And business comes first. You always wanna think they’ll make an exception, but sometimes exceptions just can’t be made. So Roots Of Fight, thank you for the great honor and the privilege of representing you. And I look forward to seeing the next member.”
