Ric Flair "Thinks The World" Of THIS Current WWE Star
The legendary Ric Flair views this WWE star as one of the most "respectful" out there.
Ric Flair is a huge fan of Kevin Owens.
The wrestling legend told listener tuning into his new 'Wooooo Nation Uncensored' podcast that Owens has "unlimited talent" and has "a hell of an interview". Not stopping there, the 'Nature Boy' also revealed that KO is one of the most "respectful" modern pro wrestlers around.
Flair cited one incident, backstage during WWE's Starrcade return, that made him smile. Kevin had approached the veteran to see what he wanted to talk about during their in-ring segment together - Ric said, "You're the boss", but Owens wasn't having any of that.
KO replied, "Yeah, but you're Ric Flair".
That went a long, long way with Flair. He liked the ego boost, but enjoyed the fact that Owens respected wrestling's past too. On the podcast, Ric said he wishes his friend "nothing but success", and says he's looking forward to watching him work some more.
On that, Flair added that KO is one of the current crop who "wants to work". He then went off on a tangent about how "some guys getting paid don’t care if they’re at work or not".
