#2 Why Ric Flair agreed to a storyline with Lacey Evans in WWE

Before WWE's Lacey Evans got pregnant and had to take a sabbatical, she was in a controversial storyline with Ric Flair. Though WWE did not make it obvious, it was indicated that Flair and Evans were in a romantic on-screen relationship.

Speaking to ESPN MMA's Ariel Helwani, Ric Flair revealed why he said yes to the storyline featuring Lacey Evans and his daughter Charlotte Flair:

''The one thing I've learned is you're not gonna win a war when someone got their mind made up and she most definitely didn't like it. But you know, the one thing I can say about me is, I always said yes. Because I didn't wanna be that guy that was always going, 'Oh god, that isn't perfect for me,'' said Flair.
