It was hard to watch for me. To be honest, I kind of think that Vince gave Ric a payday just to keep him afloat for a little while. It's in his best interest for Ric to not become a total shell of what he once was. Can you imagine the bad PR if Ric really hit rock bottom? Ric IS a shell of his former self. Stealing money from promotions, getting divorced multiple times over a few years and being an all around scumbag in other ways is hitting rock bottom. If Flair was living on the streets tomorrow, no big celeb outlet is going to put too much worry into it, because the people who are going to learn about it are the same ones that already know what kind of a man he is. Agreed, you can't blame WWE (or any other company) for Ric Flair's downfall.

He hasn't overdosed, exposed himself to a bunch of kids, or made a porno yet. All it takes is one filmmaking crew crew to follow him around for a while and film a breakdown. There's plenty of potential there in him for a real life "The Wrestler" documentary. Vince and the WWE don't need that.

Vince and the WWE don't need that. How would that be Vince or the WWE's problem? They let him ride off into the sunset like a legend and offered him a job for life being an ambassador. He said no, and cut ties. Everything after that is on his head, not Vince's.
