Wrestling legend Ric Flair is a diehard Michigan football and Jim Harbaugh fan and ranks among his most high-profile defenders amid the sign-stealing scandal.
So when Michigan knocked off Penn State 24-15 today without Harbaugh on the sidelines, the Nature Boy was more than happy to celebrate with the rest of the Wolverines.
“GO BLUE! Ha! Ha! Bow Down To Greatness And Start Kissing Ass! WOOOOO!” Flair wrote on X, tagging the Michigan football program.
Fans in the comments were delighted to have the 16-time world champion giving them support:

“To be the man you gotta beat the man. This man,” one user replied, showing a photo of a bloodied Blake Corum.
“We all need to stop and recognize how utterly awesome it is that the Nature Boy, Mr. Flair, is a fan of the Maize and Blue,” wrote another.
“The Nature Boy and I always tend to me in sync aside from capitalization,” a third joked.
Naitch is happy and Michigan is happy that Naitch is happy.
