Apparently, Ric Flair quit WWE earlier in the week. The possible departure doesn’t have anything to do with the recent drug scandal, he’s simply frustrated with his push. Also, he hasn’t had any encouraging communication from management.
WWE hasn’t given Flair his release. WWE officials are trying hard to get him to cool off and not quit. They are having discussions to get things sorted because WWE doesn’t want him to quit the company.

Last night it was reported that Ric Flair has given his notice to WWE because he is unhappy with the way his character is being used.
According to one source, Flair gave his notice a few weeks ago, before any of the Signature Pharmacy scandal broke. People close to him say that he knows he is close to the end of his career. With all of the recent suspensions in WWE, Flair now has more bargaining power than ever, thus he has been offered a bigger role. Part of the problem is stemming from personal issues involving his children. This is said to have had an overall effect on his mood.
Right now WWE is doing all they can do to try and get Flair back and are moving forward as if he will return
