Ric Flair Praises Orange Cassidy, Says WWE "Made A Joke" Of His 'The Man' Nickname And "Gave It Away

Ric Flair spoke during the WOOOOO Nation Podcast, where he addressed Becky Lynch being The Man and the negative interactions they'd have as a result of it.

“Because I’m so tired of going over it, it’s not even, let’s say hypothetically, the number one selling T-Shirt for two years in a billion dollar company, so let’s just say they made $30 million. I can find out but it’s not worth it.”

“They have to look themselves in the mirror and say, ‘They took something he worked his whole life, his a** off for everyday, made a joke of it, and gave it away.’ I’m not going to say anymore.”

Flair did sayd he likes the Orange Cassidy gimmick:

“I like it. He’s unique. I like the gimmick. He stands out. The reason we’re talking about him is he got your attention. He’s got my attention. I love the kid and he’s really a nice guy. I love the gimmick. I think he can do it for a couple more years.”
