Due to well-known issues with alcohol, anytime Ric Flair touches a microphone, it can become an adventure. Look no further than his induction speech for Sting in the WWE Hall of Fame, when he spent more time talking about his own matches with Ricky Steamboat than he did about Sting.

That was nothing compared to what he did a few weeks later at an April 26 taping of SmackDown. While there’s no guarantee he was inebriated, he did respond to a promo by Natalya by telling her to kill herself. Since this was not a live program, it was edited from the TV broadcast, but it happened nonetheless.
