Ric Flair thinks social media would have resulted in him being in prison.
Flair has been involved in a litany of problematic issues, and now he seems to believe with social media it could have been resulted in him having issues with the law.
Speaking with The Breakfast Club on 105.1 FM, Flair was asked whether he gives young wrestlers advice and tries to mentor them. He also noted that if he had social media when he was younger, he would be in prison.
“I try to, but I realize it doesn’t mean anything because the first thing they’re going to…they want to go look and see what the fans are saying. The fans run their life. Social media runs everything,”
“He’d be in jail [laughs]. We’d be conducting this interview from Riker’s Island,”

Unfortunately, we will never know what a young Ric Flair would have got up to on social media.
