Now that Ric Flair is back working for WCW, perhaps he's dropped his thoughts of becoming the governor of North Carolina.
Monday was the filing deadline to run for public office in the state, and Flair did not file.
However, according to North Carolina media outlets, that doesn't count the former world champ out. As an independent candidate, The Nature Boy did not have to file his papers of candidacy Monday, but he will have to collect 96,785 signatures of registered voters between now and June 30.
Thirteen people did register to challenge for governor - seven Democrats, four Republicans and
two Libertarians.
Flair is scheduled to be a part of the next WCW PPV, taking on old nemesis Terry Funk.
