WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair has responded to a big accusation against him on X/Twitter. The Nature Boy has been accused of not paying back $41,000 to former Ring of Honor owner Cary Silkin after allegedly failing to appear at four signings.
Flair recently found himself in the middle of another big controversy. Cary Silkin made a massive accusation against him publicly on X and asked him to pay back a whopping $41,000 he allegedly owes him.
Ric Flair has now posted a tweet, addressing the allegation. He shared a text message that someone sent to him after Cary Silkin posted the tweet aimed at him. Here's what the text message read:
“Hey Ric, I hope you bury the f**k out of Cary Silkin. He is the biggest money mark of all time. He funded RING of Honor when I ran it and f**ked me over. He is the worst human of all time. I hate the guy as he is a con artist.”
In the caption of his tweet, Ric wrote that he isn't the only one who has issues with Silkin. Here's the tweet in question.
Ric Flair on his WWE run in the early 90s
The Nature Boy had a brief run in WWE back in the early 90s before he went to WCW. Three years ago, he had a chat with Ariel Helwani on the ESPN MMA podcast and talked about his run in the Stamford-based promotion.
“I had another year and a half, the greatest time of my life, and the worst mistake I ever made [was leaving]. Vince [McMahon] said to me ‘We’re going to go younger,’ and he said ‘If you want to go back, they’ve been calling me every day so I’m sure they’ve been calling you, go in and go.’”
Ric Flair's clapback at Silkin received a mixed reaction from fans on social media. It remains to be seen what Silkin has to say in response to the remarks made by the WWE veteran.
