In typical Ric Flair fashion, the two-time WWE Hall of Famer backtracked on comments he made about WWE Superstar Ludwig Kaiser in an interview with Ariel Helwani during WrestleMania week.
Flair told Helwani that he was banned from attending WrestleMania after Kaiser got him banned for threatening him over the phone. Flair said he blamed the German star for the problems between his daughter Charlotte and Tiffany Stratton, who was his girlfriend at the time, although he actually mistook him for 24-year-old British man.
But the Nature Boy took everything back and apologized to Kaiser, saying that he never implied he wasn’t a good worker or didn’t have any talent and added that he understands that he’s doing well in “The Undertaker’s promotion,” referring to AAA.
Flair, in the interview, was unaware that Kaiser was still employed by WWE under the mask of El Grande Americano.
“I am sorry that I got upset. I am naturally very protective of my daughters as I am sure as you grow older, you will be too,” Flair said. “Continued success! I apologize for anything I said about you personally. It was not about your professional skill which I have heard is very good.”
