Due to the extreme nature of this post and the fact that it has not been reported elsewhere, please do not take this as complete fact. We feel the source we received this information from is legit and thus are willing to post it, but please take it with a grain of salt.
A current employee within Universal Studios park, without knowing the extent of the news he was sharing, passed along that Ric Flair is signing with TNA.
The employee simply thought it was a cool announcement and more than likely isn't much of a wrestling fan. Otherwise, he probably wouldn't have shared this information so easily (or at least without some sort of credit or reward being granted).
I have contacted as many of my TNA sources as I could and none were able to release any information. Understandably, the company is keeping this more than "hush hush" if it is indeed true.
Due to the source being innocent and completely unaware of the extremity of this tip, we feel we are justified in posting it. There is always that possibility he could be mistaken or confused, but he did promise that he knew he saw Ric Flair and heard that he was there signing with the company.
With the attention right now being on Booker T and him being Sting's partner at Genesis, it will be interesting to see the turn of events as this story breaks. For storyline purposes, Ric Flair would be a perfect fit as Sting's partner, but this story is definitely not confirmed.
I will do everything I can to follow up on this story and find out whatever I can to validate this claim. I have a feeling that it may be tough task, however.
