Ric Flair is back on WWE television as a regular performer now with Lacey Evans. He turned on his own daughter this week on RAW and jumpstarted a new storyline for himself. This did not come without controversy.

Some people are concerned about the two-time WWE Hall Of Famer’s presence at WWE events.

One article was published asking if WWE is “trying to kill Ric Flair.” This article took shots at WWE’s COVID-19 testing policy among other things. The subject was not taken lightly by Kevin Nash who unleashed a fiery tweet at the article while calling it “complete bullsh*t.”

Saw this in a Google feed. The story says the @WWE doesn’t do a adequate job Covid testing. Complete bullshit. Everytime I’m involved I’ve been quarantined in a hotel room after being tested then brought to the arena. I was positive and sent directly to my home to quarantine

Kevin Nash himself did test positive for COVID-19, but he was sent home from quarantine. He knows the testing system well, and he had to call out that article for taking such a spin.

WWE tests all of their performers prior to each television broadcast. They are doing what they can to prevent the spread of COVID-19, but the incredibly contagious virus is also incredibly difficult to stop 100% of the time. Our thoughts continue to go out to anyone dealing with a terrible situation caused by this dreadful virus.

I love pro wrestling and hate BS. These two things drive me. Years of experience in writing, journalism, and digging exclusive insider info for Ringside News. Worked in finance before realizing pro wrestling journalism made much less sense. Pro beachballs at pro wrestling shows, pro dives if someone catches, anti bullies, olives, and pineapples on pizza.
