Ric Flair And WWE Are Working Together On A New Documentary
Liam Parker
Regardless of what two parties have been through, there is almost no relationship in wrestling that can't be fixed. Ultimate Warrior returned to WWE and even CM Punk has rebuilt the burned bridges between himself and the wrestling business. Even though the finer details of why exactly Ric Flair left WWE last year remain unknown, his departure followed by some unsavory details revealed about Flair on Dark Side of the Ring soon after suggested we might never see him in WWE again.
Ric Flair And WWE, Together Again
While The Nature Boy won't be showing up on Raw anytime soon, Flair is once again working with WWE. The promotion announced the new project it and the 16-time World Champion will be teaming up for on Twitter this week. WWE and Flair will be working together with ESPN's Tom Rinaldi on a new documentary about the two-time Hall of Famer.

“@RicFlairNatrBoy, Tom Rinaldi, and @WWE enter partnership on an unprecedented 2-hour documentary featuring never-before-revealed history about the one and only Nature Boy,” the tweet reads. As for what exactly will be included in the doc remains a mystery. Flair has been an open book throughout most of his career, so finding two hours of stuff fans apparently don't already know about could make this doc very interesting.
Life After WWE
Flair departed WWE last summer after requesting his release from the company. Naitch has said since that the only reason he wanted to be let go was because the company was holding him back from pursuing other ventures while he was under contract. As well as a lot of stuff outside of wrestling, Flair has made an appearance for AAA since leaving, aiding Andrade when he battled Kenny Omega at Triplemania.
Flair didn't wrestle at Triplemania, but he will step back between the ropes next month at Starrcast. His first match since 2011 when he battled Sting in TNA. The competitors in the match are yet to be confirmed, but it seems likely Flair will be teaming with FTR to take on the Rock N Roll Express and a mystery partner. There has even been talk that the sixth man could be Hulk Hogan.
