WWE Elimination Chamber 2021: 10 Nightmares That Could Happen

6. Ric Flair Makes Asuka Call Him “Daddy”

This whole "Daddy" thing with Ric Flair is a nightmare in itself.

At Elimination Chamber, there's a very-real fear that 'Slick Ric' will distract Asuka by encouraging her to call him "Daddy". Knowing WWE, they also might have Flair taunt Asuka in her native tongue. Don't rule this out, folks.

Ric's "Daddy" business is the company's latest sensationalistic attempt to turn heads. They tried it with that Liv Morgan and Lana love angle (which was quietly, and quickly, dropped), and they tried it with the OTT love triangle between Lana, Bobby Lashley and Rusev. Now, they're trying it with a 71-year-old legend.

This could happen whether Lacey Evans wins the Raw Women's Title or not. She and Ric may double-team Asuka until Charlotte Flair makes the save for her old enemy-turned-tag-team partner. WWE can figure things out from there, and would probably swerve into Charlotte vs. Asuka due to Lacey's pregnancy.
