As of this writing, Ric Flair will be working for WWE without a contract. Flair’s status with Ring of Honor is uncertain, as he stated publicly that one of the main reasons he agreed to appear for ROH is to make a path for Reid Flair to join the company. ROH has no interest in Reid following his recent arrest for possession of heroin. Flair is still scheduled for future appearances with ROH and that does not sit well with WWE officials since ROH recently made their debut on HDNet.
Ric Flair is currently negotiating an international tour with several promoters to do a 30-match tour starting in July through March in Europe, South Africa, China and Egypt. Those close to Flair overheard him say the deal is too huge to turn down. Some question the international tour, as the feeling is that it will not be successful without some top name opponents.
The three likely choices to be the ‘fifth player’ in tonight’s tag-team RAW main event are Triple H, Mr. Kennedy, and Ric Flair. Vince or Shane is also possible.
