Ric Flair is expected to re-sign with WWE and resume the role of ambassador, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. Flair gave up that position to work independently 10 months ago because he felt he could make more money working outside the company. He will be making his advertised non-WWE bookings, but it's unclear whether he will still return to the ring on the proposed overseas tour that he had been negotiating.

Powell's POV: It sounds like Flair left ROH officials in a tough spot because he didn't bother to tell them that he couldn't appear on television until he got to the building, just a few hours before the HDNet taping was set to begin. I'm sure the promoters of the overseas shows he had been negotiating with for an in-ring return will also be not-so-pleasantly surprised by this development. Apparently, it's Naitch's world and we're all just living in it.
