Ric Flair's name was mentioned earlier on Dynamite.

16-time world champion Ric Flair shared his two cents on his name being uttered during a fiery promo on AEW Dynamite.

Earlier tonight, Maxwell Jacob Friedman (MJF) discussed his upcoming Full Gear match for the world championship against Jon Moxley. During the promo, he said that him becoming a world champion could potentially usher in a new era.

The Salt of the Earth then listed examples of legends who were game-changers in the wrestling business. Names like WWE legends Bruno Sammartino, Dusty Rhodes, Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, The Rock, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, and John Cena were mentioned as generational talents. Friedman claimed that he would be like them too.

Taking to Twitter, Flair acknowledged the mention, approving it. The Nature Boy took it as a compliment and gave his props to the 26-year-old:

"Thank You @The_MJF! I’ll Take That And Much RESPECT! #AEWDynamite," Flair tweeted.

The promo was the first time MJF spoke since getting attacked by his retainer team, The Firm, a couple of weeks ago.
