RIC FLAIR REMOVED FROM NEW YORK COMIC CON?

By Mike Johnson on 2021-09-20 14:12:00

Scout Comics has removed all references to Ric Flair appearing at their booth at the New York Comic Con next month.  They had announced on 9/14 that Flair would be appearing as part of a comic book launch.  

In the wake of the allegations levied during last week's Dark Side of the Ring documentary on the WWE's 2002 Plane Ride from Hell.  In the documentary, a flight attendant on the 2002 WWE "Plane Ride from Hell" from London to the United States stated that Ric Flair, naked with the exception of his robe, cornered her in the galley of the plane, making unwanted advances towards her. 

In the past, Flair has denied all allegations and as recently as several days ago, told Renee Young on her podcast, "God, I’ve heard about it too. Just when things are going good for me.  Listen, you [Renee Paquette] put me on your podcast after. We’ll see how it plays out, because I was there and I don’t care whose name I gotta drop if the heat falls on me. I know who was where and what and who and what took place. I know the whole story."

Last week, Car Shield paused their advertising campaign with Flair in the wake of the documentary airing.

It should be noted, there has been no official announcement made regarding Flair and NYCC as of this writing.
