In a social media post published last night, Flair addressed Cary Silkin, who owned ROH from 2004-2011, and used very fiery words.

"I'll Be On Busted Open Tomorrow At 11 AM!" The post reads. "Cary Silkin Prepare To Live In Another Country After I Get Through With You. Then We'll Talk About Real Wresting And Real People That Matter In Life.. [sic] Last Time I Checked- Still The Greatest Wrestler To Ever Live!"

Flair recently claimed that he was scammed out of $2 million in a crypto deal. The scam involved a long-time business associate, who Flair later identified as the person responsible for the betrayal. Flair took to social media to clear up any misunderstandings, emphasizing that the issue had nothing to do with his wife, Wendy, or anyone in his family.

Instead, it stemmed from a business arrangement made 20 years ago. Flair also clarified that it wasn't related to a woman, as some had assumed, and he refrained from naming the person involved due to concerns about a potential lawsuit. Flair had previously lost a legal battle with an insurance company, which made him cautious about taking further legal action.

Flair hasn't directly addressed Silkin's specific accusations, he made it clear that he plans to offer his side of the story during upcoming interviews.

With Flair's reputation for bold, unfiltered interviews and Silkin doubling down on his claims, fans are eagerly awaiting a potential showdown. Whether the feud is resolved or escalates, it's clear that Flair is ready to confront the situation head-on.

Flair has always been known for his outspoken personality and it appears that he's going to keep that going in 2025. There are a lot of non-specific accusations being thrown around in this situation, so it will just remain to be seen who is actually saying what.
