Flair Wants To Work With Rollins, Talks Lesnar

If Ric Flair returns to an on-air role with WWE, working with Seth Rollins would be at the top of the wish list for the "Nature Boy."

During an interview with The Sports Bible, Flair was asked who he'd like to work with on the current roster and Rollins was the first person he mentioned.

"“I really like Seth," Flair said. "I'd love to work with him."

Flair's praise of Rollins stands in stark contrast to comments made by another WWE legend and Hall of Famer, Bret Hart, who has criticized Rollins' in-ring style for being unsafe on multiple occasions.

Rollins currently is preparing to face Kevin Owens for the Universal Championship inside Hell in a Cell next Sunday, October 24, at the WWE's Hell in a Cell pay-per-view.

Flair also gave some comments on Brock Lesnar, who appears poised to return to WWE for a matchup with Goldberg at Survivor Series.

"Oh god he may be one of the greatest athletes I’ve ever seen in my life," Flair said. "He’s incredibly strong and incredibly gifted. Just the fact that he can do that 38 inch vertical jump at 290 pounds when he jumps into the ring — I wouldn’t want to be his opponent in the ring when he misses that.”

Flair and Lesnar faced one another during Lesnar's initial stint with the company.

Flair has not appeared on WWE television since the May 23 episode of Raw, when his daughter, Charlotte, fired him as her manager.
