Ric Flair comments on wrestlers asking for advice.
Ric Flair is a legendary figure in the world of wrestling and is one of the most experienced wrestlers who is still around the product. Flair is currently signed to AEW and has been appearing alongside Sting on television as well as making the media rounds.
Appearing on KARE 11, Flair was asked about giving advice to the younger wrestlers.
"I don't really do that too much anymore because, if you want to know the truth, and it's sad, but I think it's the same way in not just wrestling, but in other sports, the kids, the younger generation looks more at what the fans are saying. Social media, and they are sensitive. Everybody is sensitive and it's hurtful, but I quit giving advice when somebody asked me something and then I saw them walk over and ask someone 20 years younger the same question. I'm only going to tell them once, if they ask, and they really don't ask. People still ask me to watch their match and give my critiques, I do that. I'm delighted when someone asks me that. Someone just asked me last week. I love to help them out. I've had so much experience and wrestle so many different personalities, different body types, different styles, and I'm honored when they ask me that and I like to give them advice," said Flair.
Flair was in the corner of Sting, Adam Copeland, & Darby Allin at AEW Full Gear as they defeated Christian Cage, Luchasaurus, & Nick Wayne.
Flair has said he'll be "along for the ride" with Sting as he heads into his retirement match at AEW Revolution 2024.
