He’s not called the Dirtiest Player in the Game for nothing…
Following on from last week’s Raw Legends Night, Ric Flair was again a part of this week’s WWE Raw. Not just that, but the Nature Boy screwed over his daughter Charlotte as she lost to Lacey Evans.
Minutes into the match between the Queen and the Sassy Southern Belle, Naitch’s iconic music hit as he made his way out to ringside. After Charlotte hit her patented Natural Selection on Evans, the 16-time World Champion put Lacey’s foot on the ropes to break the count.

Pulling a trick from Bobby Heenan’s playbook, Flair then held Charlotte’s leg as she attempted to suplex Evans from the apron into the ring. As a direct result of that, Lacey Evans fell on top of her opponent and got the 1-2-3 as Charlotte was held down by her daddy dearest.
After the match, Ric Flair celebrated in the rampway with Evans, while an irked Charlotte looked on from the ring.

Again, one has to continually question why WWE would use a 71-year-old with past major medical issues during the middle of a global pandemic – particularly with WWE Champion Drew McIntyre now isolating due to a positive COVID-19 result, which is said to be part of a new “outbreak” within the company.

For Flair, if appears as if the Nature Boy has now established an on-screen relationship with Lacey Evans that will seemingly keep him on WWE programming moving forward.
