10 Fascinating WWE Royal Rumble 2016 Facts
7. WWE Edited The Flair/Becky Kiss Off Of Replays
For some people watching, it wasn't actually a shock to see Ric Flair, for whom "kiss-stealing" is an identifier, grab Becky Lynch during a Women's title match and forcibly smooch her on the lips. It's a very "Flair" thing that's well within context of his character, a designed distraction that fits within his "dirty old man" MO.
Regardless, there were a lot of fans that were creeped out by the act, even if Becky did give him a hard smack as a rebuke. There was a bit of a social media firestorm after the fact and, in an attempt to downplay the entire spot, WWE hastily scrubbed it from Network replays. Flair would continue to get physically involved in daughter Charlotte's matches, but never again to that extent.
