Watch Ric Flair inspire 49ers to victory
We found out who you can blame for your loss, Green Bay Packers fans. Before the San Francisco 49ers took the field Sunday for their NFC wild-card victory over Green Bay, they received some motivation from pro wrestling legend and WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair.
It’s no surprise the 49ers went on to win. After all, if a talk from a 17-time world champion can’t inspire you to victory, what will?
Of course, the Carolina Panthers should be pretty upset about this. They considered themselves to be Ric Flair’s team, even using a clip of him on their video board after scoring touchdowns in home games.
