WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair has opened up about why he decided to stop giving advice to up and coming wrestling talent.
The Nature Boy officially retired from in-ring competition in July 2022, winning a tag team match with son-in-law Andrade El Idolo against Jay Lethal and Jeff Jarrett.
Appearing as a guest on fellow legend Booker T‘s Hall of Fame podcast, Flair addressed the perception that he doesn’t want to help anybody improve their in-ring skills.
Flair said that this hasn’t always been the case, but that he has had bad experiences with helping people in the past:
“They take my opinion, which I f**king pretty much know what I’m talking about, and then they get in the car or walk up the ramp.
And they either look and see what the mark said about it or they talk to another guy who has got as much experience as him or less, and that’s who they go with. God forbid I know anything.”
