No word on if TNA knew about it in advance or not, but this has long since been too common of a thing for him.

 

[This Is My Name Thank You]

Nothing new here. Only the 100,304,300 show he has missed. An what's you expect, he is The Nature God Ric Flair, WOOOOOOOO!!!!!

 

[KnowMyRole-ShutYourMouth]

It does not matter. Until TNA takes action, it just doesn't. Flair will keep getting a paycheck and playing by his own rules. Such as appearing at the 2012 HOF and potentially WM. Sure, it might be a slap in the face to TNA or even a breach in his contract. But TNA has failed to establish any sort of credibility that would hint at them actually doing a damn thing about it.

Thing is he says he loves the business but keeps disrespecting it by ditching shows.
Kinda feel like hes trying to pull and "evan bourne" and get sacked so he can make a triumphant return to WWE again.
Funny how upset he was in 97 when he was accused of no showing in WCW which led to the lawsuit/Bischoff feud, but now specialises in the no shows!
Mabye he could give classes on it in FCW when he comes back?

Funny thing is, TNA has the leverage. The company isn't broke - Flair is.

Flair just signed a big endorsement deal. He doesn't need TNA as much as he use to.

 

[Pay Per Ghost]

True dat. Hail dirt sheets.

 

[Harthan]

Whatever. I don't really care what Flair does anymore.

 

[ABMorales787]

Storyline-wise, he wasn't really needed.

 

[xoxo French Kiss xoxo]

Flair is still alive?

and

what the fuck is TNA?

Flair is really a shambles these days.

Best thing he could do is retire as an on-screen character, and work behind the scenes or as an ambassador for the WWE.

I've said this before: Flair would have been perfect in the same role Bret had last year: pop in once every four months, host the show, maybe be a guest referee, throw a guy in the Figure Four, be cheered to end the show as you pose with the the face.

But alas, he's skipping shows where he would lose to Eric Bischoff's kid.

That would work, nice idea.

I had always thought that he would be perfect as a on-screen mentor/manager but he just keeps proving me wrong.

 

[I Heart Cena]

I love his crazy old man schtick on TNA. It's perfect. Hilarious stuff. Elbow dropping books. Haha.

 

[Mr. Artistic guy]

He was better when they let him talk a little bit. He doesn't need to wrestle, he can put a guy over in like a minute.

Strangely enough though, it would probably look better for TNA at this point to drop Flair, he's not helping them on TV and he's making them look bad because he doesn't care enough to show up to the shows. TNA losing Flair would be a power play right now.
