Ric Flair Apologises To Becky Lynch At WWE Raw Is XXX

Ric Flair was in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for the Raw is XXX show on Monday, January 23 and The Nature Boy revealed that he apologised to Becky Lynch and shook her husband Seth Rollins' hand when he was backstage at the event.

Lynch and Ric Flair have traded barbs on social media in recent years and they previously had issues over 'The Man' trademark, which Flair sold to WWE in May 2020.

Flair said on his To Be The Man podcast:

"I apologised to Becky Lynch. I walked up to her and said, 'May I speak with you for a minute?' I just said 'I'm sorry this ever got to where it is.' I went over and shook Seth Rollins' hands and I said, 'I'm gonna apologise to your wife.' I've just decided that, it all came with the documentary, sometimes you get so wrapped up in things that you just forget and you say it so many times for so many years. But 'The Man' trademark, the whole thing was decided by someone besides she and I. It's not that as much as the money that was involved in it, which the company reaps the better part of it anyway. Then I saw her with her child, and I thought, 'God, this will be Ashley someday, and Megan now with Morgan.' It's not worth it.

"I am not 'The Man' anymore. 'The Man' is whoever the people think it is. Basically, we've turned it over to social media to decide who 'The Man' is. Does that make sense? It could be Tom Brady, who's still playing. It could be Aaron Rodgers in football. It could be LeBron, who I still think is the man in basketball. I will be in some people's mind 'The Man' forever, but you gotta remember, I'm sitting there with 'Taker and Shawn, and I'm 20 years older than those guys. I'm there on Raw, lucky enough to celebrate that moment and that time with these guys that grew up on me. Then I introduced my daughter and called her what she is, the greatest women's champion in the history of WWE, and in my estimation, the best worker in the company. But that's just how I feel personally."
