Ric Flair Reacts To Roman Reigns Saying Flair Is a Better Wrestler Than Him

Roman Reigns gave Ric Flair a show of respect in a recent Fanatics video by saying Flair’s a better wrestler than him, something the Nature Boy was very excited to see. The Tribal Chief appeared in a video for Fanatics playing “Stop When You Hear a Better Wrestler” than him. Reigns was signing autographs and had to pause if he heard someone that was better.

At first, Reigns quipped, “Oh, just keep talking.” The filmer named Bronson Reed, Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker, Cody Rhodes, LA Knight, and Drew McIntyre. None of them caused Reigns to even hesitate. However, when Flair was brought up, Reigns smiled and paused, put a finger up and said, “Ric Flair.”

Flair saw the video and reposted it, writing:

“Thank you for the respect @WWERomanReigns! This has to be the biggest compliment I’ve received in years!”

It’s a welcome change for Flair from recent days, where he was criticized for claiming that “street drugs” killed Hulk Hogan. Hogan’s widow Sky pushed back on those claims, which Flair responded to with a public request to “just move past this and concentrate on his legacy.”
