As reported on earlier, Ric Flair and World Wrestling Entertainment have agreed to part ways.

A report by The Wrestling Observer/Figure Four Online has indicated that several independent promoters were told Sunday by representatives of Ric Flair that Flair has parted ways with WWE and will now be available for independent bookings. The public front is that it was an amicable parting between the two parties. WWE was not allowing Flair to take offers that he was wanting to accept, so this parting will now allow him to do so.
