Ric Flair def. United States Champion MVP (Career Threatening Match)
NEW YORK-- With his livelihood on the line in a Career Threatening Match, Ric Flair found a way to win and keep his career going Sunday night at Royal Rumble. When MVP thought he had snatched victory and forced Flair into retirement, the referee ruled that the match would continue, giving new life to "Naitch," leading him to the victory via his legendary Figure Four Leglock.
In the weeks leading up to the contest, MVP bragged that he would be the Superstar to end the illustrious sports-entertainment reign of the 16-time World Champion. At Royal Rumble, however, Flair showed why he has been at the top of Space Mountain his entire career, taking the brazen Baller for a ride he won't soon forget.
With his years of in-ring experience and the raucous capacity crowd in Madison Square Garden firmly behind him, Ric Flair delighted our fans by silencing the cocky Franchise Playa and surviving to fight another day. The "Nature Boy" is fighting with the same fire and focus that has made him one of the most celebrated Superstars in WWE history, and the "Dirtiest Player in the Game" is pulling every trick out of his bag to ensure he goes out on his own terms.
