Flair Lawsuit Update, Vince McMahon – RAW, Injured NXT Star Returns

– WWE’s book Second Nature, which was written by Bryan Shields and focused on Charlotte Flair and Ric Flair made one person in particular not happy. Charlotte’s ex-husband, Riki Paul Johnson, said the book contained information that was defaming and filed a lawsuit for $5 million.

According to PWInsider, the Flair family and Shields were granted on a motion for extra time to respond to the lawsuit. They now have until January 18 to respond.   

Johnson claims that the book made false statements that he caused emotional and physical abuse to Charlotte, was a drug user who lost two jobs because of his habit and was sterile. He also stated that there are police reports and dash-cam footage to support his side of the story.

– As we prepare to close out the year, last week’s RAW is easily in the running as the worst episode in some time. From start to finish RAW was boring, predictable and lacked sense from a storyline purpose. 

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Vince McMahon was the one responsible for the show as he wrote almost the entire three hours. Hopefully tonight’s show is the opposite of last week and our fans seemed to agree during one of Twitter polls as seen below.

– Riddick Moss is already back wrestling, after tearing his Achilles heel. The injury was supposed to keep Moss out of action for eight mnths, but he only needed five.

At Friday’s NXT live event, Moss attacked Matt Riddle during a promo. They were booked in a match for later in the evening, which saw Riddle win via submission; despite interference by Kassius Ohno.
