Ric Flair is threatening to sue his own son, David, for the continued use of the name Green Flair Recycling for his business in Shelby, North Carolina.
David runs the recycling business with a small fleet of trucks and uses his father’s registered trademark as part of the company name.
“Unfortunately, there is someone that I’m very familiar with using my own trademark FLAIR,” Ric wrote on X. “I would like anyone who is using my trademarks, which are impossible to own and I own mine, to know that I’m well represented by a reputable $1000 per hour attorney that makes a living suing people that abuse my trademark.”
Flair gave his son an ultimatum for Monday to “clear this up” before he will proceed with legal action.
In a later post, Flair said that the relationship with his son was “gone 9 years ago” although he’s sorry and sad it had to come to that.
“I’ve tried my best to fix things over the years only to be rejected because your wife runs your life,” he wrote.
David, the step-brother of Charlotte, is from Ric’s marriage to Leslie Goodman. They also have a daughter, Megan, together, who is married to famous wrestling podcaster and collector Conrad Thompson.
