Seth Rollins: Ric Flair & Becky Lynch's beef is 'squashed' after WWE Raw apology

Posted: Feb 9th 2023 By: Ian Carey

Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch have squashed their beef with Ric Flair.

Rollins appeared on The Pat McAfee Show on Wednesday and spoke about Flair apologizing to him and Lynch backstage at WWE Raw XXX last month.

Rollins said:

I'll put it out there right now, beef squashed between Ric Flair and Becky Lynch. To be fair, the beef was never on my wife's side, she never had beef with Ric. Ric had beef with her. He was man enough to come up and apologize to myself and to her and I thought that was awesome because I love Ric and I want to have a ton of respect for him and the fact that he was able to put his ego aside, bygones be bygones, we had a good moment at Raw XXX and he is The Nature Boy, one of the greatest of all time, on the Mount Rushmore on any wrestling list of all time.

Flair had several social media exchanges with Lynch in 2021 regarding her use of "The Man" moniker. He revealed recently on his podcast that he apologized to both Lynch and Rollins backstage at WWE Raw XXX.

Flair said:

I apologized to Becky Lynch. I walked up to her and said, 'May I speak with you for a minute?' And I just said 'I'm sorry that it ever got to where it is.' I went over and shook Seth Rollins' hand and I said, 'I'm going to apologize to your wife.'

Flair continued:

The Man trademark, the whole thing was decided by someone besides she and I. So, if they need to go to war over it... It's not that as much as it was the money that was involved in it, which the company reached the better part of, anyway. And then I saw her with her child and I thought, 'God, this will be Ashley some day.'

Rollins appears to be building an angle with Logan Paul. The popular YouTube star eliminated Rollins from the men's Royal Rumble match and the following week Rollins was critical of Paul during an interview with TMZ. Rollins said the 27-year-old is "just not a wrestler" and should go back to "buying counterfeit Pokemon cards."

Rollins continued to discuss his feeling about Paul during Wednesday's episode of The Pat McAfee Show.

No one is just going to suit up and play NFL football because they're a social media superstar, right? They are going to get creamed. So, he's going to step into my world and he's going to get creamed.

He's in it for himself, he's in it for himself, he's in it for his own gain. So, I don't want you a part of my business if you are just going to leach off of it and you're going to take from it.

Rollins will challenge for the United States Championship inside the Elimination Chamber in Montreal on February 18, 2023. He qualified for the match by defeating Chad Gable on the January 30 WWE Raw.
