Ric Flair Reportedly Scheduled To Appear On RAW Monday

According to a report from PWInsider, Ric Flair will be headed to RAW on Monday in Orlando, Florida.

While official reasoning hasn’t been given, the speculation is that he will be there to honor “Mean” Gene Okerlund, who sadly passed away Wednesday at the age of 76.

“Mean” Gene and Ric Flair were very close in their careers. In WCW, Ric Flair would begin many promos with “Mean–Woo! by God, Gene!” Regarding Okerlund’s passing Ric said the following:

One Of My Closest Friends Since 1972 Until This Very Sad Day In 2019. Not Only The Greatest Voice And Personality In The History Of Announcing, But A Man Who Touched Everyone’s Life Who Were Fortunate Enough To Know Him. Rest In Peace Knowing No One Will Ever Replace You.
