Ric Flair has publicly admonished his son David Flair in now deleted X posts.
Although Flair made it clear that he isn’t suing him, he gave him a stern warning on X about copyright and trademark issues when it comes to him launching his own business. David operates a recycling business called Green Flair Recycling.
He wrote:
“I’m Obviously Not Suing My Son. Just Reminding Him That You Can’t Have The Best Of Both Worlds! Use Your God Given Name, Fliehr, Which Isn’t Worth A Cup Of Coffee. Or Your Wife’s Name, Who Has Had 3 Generations Of Success. Also, Please Don’t Sell My Robes That I Let You Use During Your Career As You Have Already Sold One. You’re 47 Years Old… Now Stand On Your Own Two Feet Please.”
In a previous and also deleted post on X, Flair warned an unnamed individual to discontinue using the “Flair” name in association with their business or he would be calling his attorneys.
He wrote:
“Unfortunately, There Is Someone That I’m Very Familiar With Using My Own Trademark FLAIR. 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. You Know Who I’m Talking About. I Hope You Can Clear This Up By Monday, And If We Can’t Resolve This Issue, Read The Penalties.”
He also stated:
“The Relationship Was Gone 9 Years Ago… I’m Sorry & Sad That It Has Come To This. I’ve Tried My Best To Fix Things Over The Years Only To Be Rejected Because Your Wife Runs Your Life.”
David Flair wrestled in WCW for a brief period of time. He held the WCW United States Championship and WCW World Tag Team Championship while there. He turned on his father during the nWo angle joining nWo Elite. He was managed by and dated Stacy Keibler at the time. He is now married to Robin Haskell and has two kids.
