It looks like we might have a bit of s showdown on the horizon.

Reports are coming in that WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair has filed a trademark for "The Man" which also includes merchandise, and this obviously hasn't sat very well with the current Raw Women's Champion.

Becky Lynch, who has been known as "The Man" ever since she turned heel on Charlotte Flair and embraced a new, edgier persona, sent out the following Tweet early this morning.


Let's get something straight here: Ric Flair was never actually known as "The Man," he simply used the term as part of one of his regular promos ("to be the man, you've gotta beat the man...WOOOO!"). Flair was always referred to as "The Nature Boy," so this trademark thing is, to be frank, a load of bullshit.

We'll see how things play out, but let us know how you feel about the situation in the comments down below.
