As previously reported, WWE officials were not happy with Ric Flair over the weekend, with the feeling that he hijacked the WWE 2K Legends event.
Flair was reportedly going to make a surprise appearance at SummerSlam, but due to the situation at the 2K event, that appearance was cancelled. Flair’s actions at the event may have also cost him a job with WWE, and he was negotiating a new deal with WWE, which would have seen Flair doing PR work for the company.
