Ric Flair told some interesting stories on his latest podcast, including a time Triple H called him and told him he was going to rehab for drinking. Flair then walked into an intervention at his home, and proceeded to drink heavily before entering rehab, but still not blowing a big number on a breathalizer.
Former WWE Champion Daniel Bryan rose to superstardom in 2014 thanks to his organic rise as a babyface. This culminated in him winning both the WWE and World Heavyweight Championships at WrestleMania 30 after Bryan defeated Randy Orton and Batista in a triple threat match. Matt Riddle also dropped a huge Daniel Bryan bombshell.
Daniel Bryan, now known as Bryan Danielson, discussed why he left WWE for AEW after the end of AEW All Out, as seen in the tweets below. Adam Cole also debuted, reuniting with The Elite. Jim Ross ‘botched’ a major WWE star’s AEW debut.
WWE Hall Of Famer The ‘Nature Boy’ Ric Flair is definitely one of the all-time greatest pro wrestlers to have walked on the planet. He is also a man full of controversies and has had trouble with a lot of pro wrestlers and pro wrestling personalities. Ric Flair is also returning for a match in 2022.
One of the previous episodes of Vice’s Dark Side Of The Ring series focused on the infamous Plane Ride From Hell incident and it immediately brought heat on Ric Flair, Tommy Dreamer and others. It seems Ric Flair is not out of the dog house just yet.
Ric Flair recently spoke on his Wooooo Nation UNCENSORED podcast, where he said that Bryan Danielson’s in-ring work is only okay at best.
“I didn’t say he wasn’t a good worker. When Hunter put him over at [WrestleMania 30], that made him. He’s a very talented kid, don’t misunderstand me, but you have to have one match, one place, one day, somewhere that makes you who you are. Hunter, who only wrestles once in a while, came out and the match started off slow but they ended up having a world-class match.
“They tore the joint down. That is the night that made Bryan. I like him a lot personally. He’s got a style…he’s not AJ Styles by any means. He’s a little bit smaller than AJ. He’s not AJ Styles. I like his conditioning, he works hard, he’ll do anything and sacrifice his body at all odds. He’ll throw himself around and take incredible bumps. He’s a hell of a hand.
You’re asking me who is good and who is great. He’s very good. As a babyface, it’s more believable. He can sell his ass off so when he’s making a comeback, it’s more fun to watch him make a comeback against bigger guys. It’s harder for me to believe he’s going to hold someone down. As a babyface, who is just average size but loaded with talent, I much prefer to see him fighting from underneath.”
