There is no stopping ‘The Nature Boy’ Ric Flair right now. After dominating the wrestling industry for nearly 40 years, Flair found his way into the entertainment business as well. And after becoming a huge name there, he now seems to focus on the market currently dominated by Logan Paul and KSI.

Logan Paul and KSI’s Prime Energy drink is one of the most popular and trending energy drinks amongst the young generation. The drink saw a huge craze in its popularity after its lack of availability in the market. Its lack of supply increased its demand. However, fans now might have something else to enjoy, as Ric Flair entered the market with his very own product.

The energy drink’s social media wrote on his Instagram profile, “The Nature Boy is Stylin’ and Profilin’ In The Energy Drink Market! WOOO!!”

 

In his interview with New York Post, Flair revealed himself to be not much of an energy drink fan and but things have now changed. He revealed that while all the other drinks in the market give him anxiety, his stuff lasts long.

Further speaking to NY Post, he also revealed the source of his drinks to be adaptogenic mushrooms, not psychedelic mushrooms. It was also revealed that while the drink is now available online, it would soon be launched in the retail chain stores as well.

Can Ric Flair hold his ground against Logan Paul’s already established Prime Energy drink?

The Nature Boy Ric Flair had introduced the drink to Joe Rogan back in April, who had tasted it, and heaped compliments on it. It was further stated that since the main ingredient of the drink is mushroom, consumers may not feel the same jittery feeling they have after consuming other mainstream energy drinks.

For the nutrients, the drink will come in flavors such as dragon fruit, lemon, and strawberry banana, while Logan Paul’s drink has a much-varied range of flavors. It will also contain 150mg of caffeine and six grams of sugar, while Prime contains 140mg of caffeine and around 2g of sugar.

However, as Logan Paul faces legal turmoil over his energy drink, Flair could use it to its own advantage. As per reports, a 12oz of Prime Can contains a massive amount of 200mg of caffeine, which can be dangerous for children. The drink has been asked to go through an FDA investigation, extremely popular among its fans, this legal turmoil can be a major cause of its downfall.

Although it is still very early to decide a winner amongst the two, Flair could use Paul’s lack of supply in the market, and legal problems to his advantage, and swoop his fans away in one single tide. However, things are still in the early stage, and only time shall time what is in store.
