Hold onto your figure-fours, wrestling fans, because Ric Flair is swapping his sequined robes for a suit and tie as he considers stepping into a different kind of ring—a courtroom! The “Nature Boy” is stirring up more drama than a telenovela following a spat at Piesanos Stove Oven Pizza in Gainesville, Florida, that left fans and foes alike clutching their pearls.
It all kicked off with Flair being ushered out of the pizza joint, leading to an uproarious scene captured by TikTok detectives faster than you can say “Wooo!” The social media frenzy depicted Flair in a less-than-flattering light as he tangled with the Piesanos staff. But wait, there’s more to the story, and Ric wants the world to know his side of the melee.
Speaking with “The Gainesville Sun,” Flair detailed a bizarre bathroom blockade involving a star-struck kitchen staffer who turned paparazzi in the potty, snapping texts instead of flushing away. Flair’s request for privacy turned prickly when he was branded a “peeping tom” by another employee, sparking the viral video encounter.
Despite the chaos, Flair wasn’t stingy with the cash, allegedly sliding a cool $1,000 tip to a bartender who, unfortunately, was less than grateful. Piesanos’ co-owner, Jerry Roberts, confirmed the tip was returned, opting to pay the bartender directly, applauding his team’s professionalism amidst the mayhem.
Now, with the taste of injustice lingering spicier than a slice of pepperoni pizza, Flair is mulling over legal action. He’s even jesting about buying the joint and rebranding it as “Ric Flair’s Italian Bistro”—now that’s a spicy meat-a-ball!
As the plot thickens and the stakes rise higher than a WWE championship belt, the wrestling world watches with bated breath. Will Flair lay the legal smackdown, or is this just another promotional stunt? Either way, apologies have been made, and the robe has been thrown—into the legal ring, that is.
