NEWS: Ric Flair in Twitter War of Words with MLB Writer

NEWS: Houston Astros right fielder, Josh Reddick, is a huge wrestling fan. Astros fans, full well knowing this fact about their beloved right fielder, serenade Reddick with Ric Flair's famous "Wooo" chant whenever Reddick comes to the batter's box. Stefan Stevenson, writer for the Fort Worth Telegram, took exception to the chant and vented his frustrations on Twitter:

Psst, #Astros fans, the "woo" needs to stop.https://t.co/j5zTD8Eu9z

— Stefan Stevenson (@StevensonFWST) May 5, 2017

That's when the 16-time World Champion weighed in:

How about no, Stefan.

The WOOOO will never die #Astros #WOOOOlife https://t.co/TW0XhyjjjT

— Ric Flair® (@RicFlairNatrBoy) May 6, 2017

Then things became heated. Stevenson went there and by there we mean THERE.

@RicFlairNatrBoy The woo might work in wrestling but baseball is real. #nowooinginbaseball

After killing kayfabe and using the infamous "fake" word, Flair appropriately responded to Stevenson once again with:

Hey Stefan, do us all a favor and delete your twitter account.

Thanks,
WOOOOO Nation https://t.co/exifK6LKAf

Even Josh Reddick got in on all the fun:

Big series win! Now back to Wooston! https://t.co/ZSG88XXUBF

— Josh Reddick (@RealJoshReddick) May 8, 2017

So did "Wooston" Texans perennial Pro Bowl linebacker J.J. Watt:

"Whether you like it or not, learn to love it, because it's the best thing going."
WOOOO! https://t.co/8OZdzcMPc0

Of course, we hope Vince McMahon is paying attention and books a WrestleMania match between Stevenson and Reddick, with Watt in Reddick's corner and Ric Flair as Reddick's Hall of Fame manager. We're only half kidding.
