WWE legend Ric Flair isn’t mincing his words when it comes to his feelings on the retirement of Vince McMahon … outright saying he hates it!
76-year-old McMahon retired last week after decades as Chairman and CEO of WWE … so when Nature Boy joined the “TMZ Sports” TV show (airing weeknights on FS1) this week, we asked him if his former boss should’ve stayed on the job.
“Yes, I think he’s one of a kind and I’ve said this,” Flair tells us, adding Vince has made a lot of careers thanks to his genius.
“He’s made so many people rich and he’s literally has made chicken salad out of a lot of chicken s**t. Mojo knows what I’m talking about. He’s made a lot of people rich.”
Flair went on to say he doesn’t condone the allegations against McMahon (Vince is being investigated by a law firm hired by WWE for allegedly paying off several former female employees with whom he allegedly had relationships).
“I mean they’re just trying to murder him now and who knows and all. I’m certainly not defending anything that’s negative and I’m not taking a side on the issue that apparently has been brought up but I know as a person and what he did for me, there’s nobody like him.”
As for the future of the world’s top wrestling organization (McMahon bought the company from his dad in 1982), Flair says the company is in great hands with Vince’s daughter and current WWE executive, Stephanie McMahon.
“I think Stephanie’s a genius!”
As for Ric, it’s a huge week for the 2x WWE Hall of Famer … on Sunday, Flair will enter the squared circle as a competitor for the last time in his incredible career.
More on that match from Ric coming soon … stay tuned!
