WWE History: Ric Flair makes young fan cry at ringside
Monday Night RAW after WrestleMania is often one of the most anticipated shows in WWE. There are many debuts and memorable moments that leave the fans stunned. The WWE Universe talks about these shows for months as the build-up to the next big feud also takes place on this night.
RAW after WrestleMania XIX was no different, but one particular incident left a young fan in tears at ringside. The Hurricane was set to take on the then WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Triple H, when Ric Flair, who was at ringside, made a young fan cry.
The Hurricane made his way to the ring for the match and gave one of his masks to a kid at ringside. Flair, who was a heel at the time, took it away from the kid and what followed left the fans astonished.
While 'the incident' might have been staged, it looks like the strap of the mask broke while Flair was trying to remove it. The kid was hurt at ringside, but the 16-time champion stayed in character and went on with his part.
Ric first tried to wear the mask, but upon realising that the strap was broken, he threw it on the ground and stamped on it. The Hurricane then came out of the ring and landed a few punches only to be stopped by The Game.
Triple H and The Hurricane then went ahead with their match, and the WWE World Heavyweight Champion came out victorious via pinfall after delivering a Pedigree.
