Ziggler said he will never forget the times he and Flair had in Florida, shouted out Mean Gene Okerlund, and called Flair the greatest of all time, ending the message wearing Flair trunks.
Many thanks to former World Heavyweight Champion & one of the greatest performers of today, @HEELZiggler, for the message to @RicFlairNatrBoy during the #FlairRoast at #STARRCASTV!
