Ric Flair has stated he hadn’t heard from AEW since turning down the idea of turning on Sting in his retirement match at Revolution. It’s been reported that AEW’s deal with Woooo Energy is over, which has impacted Flair’s status as the drink company paying for Flair to be on AEW’s television.
Flair was originally planned to make an appearance on this Saturday’s AEW Collision event from the Bojangles Coliseum in Charlotte, NC this Saturday. However, that is no longer the case.
According to a report by PWInsider.com, Flair was at one point slated to appear at the event, but is no longer expected to be there. They were told the role was “a cameo.”
Instead, The Rock N’ Roll Express, Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson, will fill the role of being local legends returning to the area.
