Ric Flair recalls the incident
On his Wooooo Nation Uncensored podcast, Flair recollected a match that he had in 1982 in the Dominican Republic, where he wrestled local hero Jack Veneno for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship. The Nature Boy’s trip to the country was filled with a series of issues, including being stuck in the country due to him not having his passport.
Flair had taken Roddy Piper with him when he went back to the Dominican Republic and the latter was paid in an unusual way – cocaine.
“They gave me $5000 and they gave him (Piper) cocaine and $500 bucks. He was happy (laughs),” said Flair.
