Ric Flair Comments On Attending WWE TV Tapings During Pandemic

Many have criticised WWE for having Ric Flair continue to attend WWE TV tapings during the COVID-19 pandemic, and Flair himself has now addressed this.

Speaking with Wrestling Inc, Flair made it clear he feels comfortable and safe at tapings and everyone is following all the guidelines in place.

He said:

“The WWE is doing everything and following every guideline possible. The testing and all that was conducted as professionally as it could possibly be. Three doctors. Organized. Yes, people had to stand in line, but that was because of so many people being tested. But nobody was together. Everybody had a mask on.

“I would scrutinize anybody that said otherwise at the highest level. I was tired of hearing the bulls**t. Carrano, Ace, Vince himself, I could go down the list of people that are making sure that everybody’s life is at the best possible place while they’re there for the event.”

Speaking about the decision to keep going back even after positive tests, Ric Flair added:

“I went back the next day. Of course I would. And I’ve got a pre-existing condition and I’m in my 70s! Let me tell you something, you are safer going to a WWE event than you are going to Kroger’s grocery store.”
