In what may be the first celebrity endorsement of the 2026 cycle, a professional wrestler known as “the dirtiest player in the game” is endorsing Florida’s Top Cop for Governor.
“Spending Time With My Great Friend Ashley Moody, The Attorney General Of Florida Who I Totally Support Politically. I Think Things Are Okay In Florida. Hoping You Become The Next Governor! Much Respect! WOOOOO,” posted Ric Flair to social media.
Moody has not declared interest in being Governor at this point, though her name has been linked with many others in what is an embryonic field with several possibilities surfacing in 2025.
Flair, whose latest work in the business has been with Jacksonville-based All Elite Wrestling, was one of the most recognizable professional grapplers of the 1980s and 1990s. He has long been a partisan of the Florida Gators, and has frequented Gainesville.
His most recent trip to Alachua County fell short of stylin’ and profilin’, however, as Flair bickered with staff at a pizza place in Gainesville, an incident that TMZ reports he has since apologized for.
“I was wrong for getting upset. I probably just should have just walked out the door, but it caught me so off-guard because we were having a wonderful time. Then all of a sudden … someone in their kitchen said I did something wrong in the bathroom and there’s no one there except me and him,” Flair told a local radio station on Wednesday.
It’s unclear if the Nature Boy’s endorsement will help Moody in a crowded field if she runs as Flair urges. A recent University of North Florida poll had the Plant City Republican at 6% support, a distant third behind First Lady Casey DeSantis.

Ric Flair has a flair for the shitter. His follow-up stinks too.

Donald’s will definitely be in the mix. Of course the zombies here will call him an “Uncle Tom”.

Again, IBS, you’re the only one here using that name for Mr Byron. Nobody else. Just you.
As usual with G0P types, every accusation is a confession.

Good evening Sage Patriots,
It is totally unacceptable what this recent pop-up Pizza chain did to our Sage American Hero Rick “The Nature Boy” Flair.
I’m going to have Ron get his Department of Health to look into this Pizza Chain with a fine tooth comb and determine if they are backed by George Soros, The Chinky Chinky Chineise, The Ruskies, or The Bearded Stinky Muzzys.
Actually, Sage Patriots, I, Elvis Pitts American. recently patronized one of this chain’s restaurants down in Florida while I was taking care of some Sage Business on Florida’s East Coast. As soon as I walked in my Special “Dook 4 Brains Leftist” alarm went off inside my Sage Brain. Poor greeting and customer contempt was what I got. Granted I had dressed down and they must have been unaware of who I was …. but I changed my dine in plans and ordered one of their pizzas to go.
When I, Elvis Pitts American, got home and tasted their product it was just lower end adaquate. I’ve had better buy one – get one free pizzas from low end grocery stores frozen food sections.
Anyway I let it go and never went back.
But now that they dis-respected The Nature Boy I, Elvis Pitts American, am detetmened to run them out of Ron “The Ronald” DeSantis Free State of Florida,
Thank you America,
Elvis Pitts American

My, earl, you’re even more racist than usual today, and I see you can still fit the DeSantiscock and the Trumpcock in your gaping mouth-hole at once, even with all the empty, treasonous, hate-blather you run at any given hour.

It is a little early, but Ashley Moody would make an excellent Governor of the Great State of Florida!

All the hoopla she makes over trans bathrooms, but here’s Ms Ashley getting all buddy buddy with some old dude who, based on reporting, appears to be an actual bathroom creeper.

Ashley Moody’s election victory to governor would be ANOTHER two steps backward!
Republicans are America’s worst enemy!
Vote all Republicans out of office!

Ashley Moody received the most votes of anyone on the ballot in the 2022 General Election, and won by the largest margin among the statewide races (1.62M votes). Not sure that will play forward, but is an interesting fact.
Moody – 4,651,279
DeSantis – 4,614,210
Patronis – 4,528,811
Simpson – 4,510,644
Rubio – 4,474,847

She’s spent so much of her tenure litigating out of state that she will probably do well there, too.
