The Nature Boy recently spoke to Conrad Thompson, and revealed that he had approached Reigns after hearing rumors that the WWE Superstar’s opinion of him had changed.He had also praised his daughter Charlotte Flair.
He said:
“I was concerned that I had lost the respect of Roman Reigns,” Flair said. “Because when that whole ‘Man’ thing went upside down and all that and I had to file the trademark, whatever transpired, it means nothing now. I think people, I heard that he… and I walked right up to him. I said, ‘Can I have a minute of your time?’ and I said, ‘Hey, it means a lot to me.’ I mean, you want the kids [current WWE Superstars] to look forward to you coming, not, ‘Oh man, here he comes again.’ Does that make sense? Especially when you have a daughter who is at the most elite position she could be in.”
Roman Reigns is set to defend his Universal Championship against Cesaro at Sunday’s WrestleMania Backlash event.
