As we reported, we have received reports that Mick Foley and Ric Flair had a big confrontation backstage at RAW last night. Ric went to shake Mick's hand but Foley declined and made a comment Flair didn't like about signing his book. The two had a minor shouting match then Flair swung and connected a punch to Foley's head. Luckily, Foley was not hurt and decided to work RAW anyway.

Many of you may wonder what caused Foley to make such a remark. This has been simmering for quite some time now, ever since Ric released his book. It's no secret that there is some bad blood between Flair and Foley ever since Flair commented that Foley was not wrestler but more of a "stunt man".
