WWE Lambasted For Using Reid Flair’s Death

In one of those head scratching moments WWE used the death of Reid Flair on RAW to add heat to the Paige vs Charlotte storyline. In the segment Charlotte brought up her brother’s death and how Paige was there for her at the time. Later Paige said that he “didn’t have much fight in him,” to spark a brawl between the pair who were signing their Survivor Series match contract.

While it’s clear that Charlotte, Paige and Ric will have given their blessing, Reid and Charlotte’s mother Beth was not happy:

@WWE @StephMcMahon @VinceMcMahon @TripleH WWEWriters really, that lazy! #CheapHeat #disgusting #disrespectful #cruel #sad #RawGreenville

It’s a very odd situation considering WWE are so over the top with their image these days.

Sorry, I watched one of your shows a few months ago and it put me in a slumber that has been hard to recover from. https://t.co/rUW08RuIGG

I made one comment, hoping he would start showing more… & he got butt-hurt. Didn't know I was so threatening #RAW pic.twitter.com/0ABjfXw08t

It’s possible that this is some kind of work as Hart has been appearing as a celebrity talking head on WWE Network shows.
