8. When Do The Viagra Jokes Start?

That’s where this is going, isn’t it?

At some point, someone is going to have to make a “blue pill” joke about Ric Flair pairing up with Lacey Evans. But besides that, this is just an awful idea for a storyline. Flair, who continues to debase himself and his legacy, is now apparently shacking up with Evans, because why not?

The match between Charlotte Flair and Lacey was pretty pedestrian even before the Nature Boy showed up, and then he proceeded to put Evans’ foot on the ropes after Natural Selection. He then grabbed his daughter’s foot on a suplex attempt and held it down so Lacey got the win.

And thus, we have a Flair versus Flair rivalry of sorts. So is Ric being duped by Evans? Or is he really just turning heel on his daughter? Either way, we all lose.
