WWE Superstars Unfollow Ric Flair On Twitter.

SETH ROLLINS and the legendary Triple H have unfollowed Ric Flair on Twitter in the aftermath of the Nature Boy’s legal threat against WWE.

Flair, 70, vowed this week to launch a legal war on the WWE over unauthorised use of Becky Lynch’s ‘The Man’ gimmick.
Naitch has been referring to himself by the same moniker since his heyday back in 1981 – and even holds the trademark for his famous “To be the man, you gotta beat the man” catchphrase.

Lynch, who adopted the nickname last year, has since become one of WWE‘s biggest stars and is the current RAW Women’s Champion.

But the Irish Lasskicker, real name Rebecca Quin, may have to drop the character after Flair’s Limited Liability Company registered for ‘The Man’ trademark last week.

The 32-year-old took to Twitter to profess that she still is “The Man”, only for the Nature Boy to hit back with: “To Be The Man, You Gotta Beat THE MAN! #alreadytrademarked”.

Flair would later expand further on his claim in an explosive interview with TMZ Sportsyesterday, vowing to get WWE to pay him for it so he can “take care” of his family.

But despite the 16-time world champion, a joint-record also held by John Cena, being one of the most-loved superstars to ever step foot inside the ring, it seems his popularity is dwindling on social media.

However, Triple H’s decision to hit the unfollow button is surprising given their long-standing friendship.

The Game, real name Paul Levesque and the Executive Vice President of Talent, Live Events and Creative at WWE, idolised Flair as a child and would later team with him as part of the all-conquering Evolution stable.

Naitch revealed that he has been trying to work out an amicable, private agreement in which WWE would pay him to allow Lynch to keep using her nickname.

However, Vince McMahon’s company declined to offer, leading to Flair escalating the situation to Triple H, before finally filing an application to own the pro-wrestling term, ‘The Man’.

Flair revealed that the WWE is annoyed at him for making the move and that it’s also caused a rift between himself and his daughter Charlotte – a current star on SmackDown and a ten-time Women’s Champion.

He told TMZ: “My daughter (Charlotte) is so mad at me because I’ve filed, not even understanding, it’s not with Becky, I have no beef with Becky.

“When I almost died two years ago, one person stayed by me [Wendy]. The whole time — 31 days in the ICU, 12 days while I was dying on a respirator — and I’m gonna take care of her, and her family, and my family that has taken care of me no matter what.

“I don’t care what the WWE thinks of me personally, I know they love me, but obviously they’ve lost respect for me.

“Even if I won (the trademark), Becky can have it all day long, I’m glad, but I want the company (WWE) to pay me for it because I’m gonna take care of my family!”
