WWE legend Ric Flair nearly fought a manager of a pizza joint in Gainsville, Florida, on Tuesday afternoon, as seen on a video posted by TMZ.
The three-minute clip shows an agitated Nature Boy getting into a heated verbal exchange with the manager at Piesanos Stone Fired Pizza before another customer stepped in and physically threatened the 75-year-old.
During the exchange, Flair referred to the manager as 'Nicholas D***head' and called him a 'dips***' in front of his employees while standing on opposite sides of the bar.
'Come outside here and talk to me like a man,' Flair told the manager before another man interrupted and told Flair: 'Hey, you wanna go have a talk with me in the parking lot? Cause I don't work here. I don't give a s**t.'
'What'd you say to me? What'd you say to me?' Flair responded after the bystander stood up for the manager, who tried his best to stay composed despite the verbal assault from the wrestling icon.

After the incident, Flair took to Instagram to express his feelings about his experience
As the bickering continued, the manager accused Flair of cursing at one of his employees. In response, Nature Boy said: 'I never said a cuss word.'
Flair then offered one of the employees a huge tip to curse out their manager. 'I'm gonna give you a thousand-dollar tip just to say to him, 'Kiss my a**,'' Flair told a bartender as he turned towards the manager.
Although the situation fortunately did not escalate, Flair took to Instagram to make his feelings known about his experience and the staff.
Additionally, he explained how the exchange sprung from an issue he had with the bathroom line and the kitchen manager.
'I Spent $1500 At [Piesano's] To Be Disrespected More Than I Ever Have In My Entire Life,' Flair wrote. 'After Taking 20 Pictures With Customers And Staff, I Was Asked To Leave Because Of An Issue I Had With The Kitchen Manager Taking Too Long In The Bathroom.'
