The Academy Awards banned Will Smith from The Oscars for the next ten years, following him slapping Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars. Some people, though, still believe the slap wasn’t genuine and looked very similar to a WWE storyline.
Now, if The Academy banned Smith from the Oscars following the slap, there’s a high probability that it wasn’t scripted. Nevertheless, the fans have taken to social media to reveal that it’s time for the Hollywood actor to make his WWE debut!

Of course, Will Smith will not be coming to WWE given he’s not shown any interest in the same in recent years. However, the squared circle is a good place to resolve conflicts, and fans would surely enjoy watching Chris Rock and Smith face each other in a WWE ring.

Ric Flair gives his opinion about Will Smith slapping Chris Rock
Ever since The Oscars, many people have reacted to what happened between Rock and Smith. One such individual is WWE Legend Ric Flair.
According to Ric Flair, the slap wasn’t real. He believes that if someone were to make a joke about his wife or offend him, it wouldn’t be a slap, but a punch.

Additionally, boxing legend Mike Tyson believes that if Ric Flair thinks it’s a fake, it’s definitely a fake. Moreover, Tyson also thinks if someone offended him, it wouldn’t be a slap, but more than one punch at least.
At this point, no one can say what it actually was. If it was planned, The Academy Awards wouldn’t ban Smith from the future Oscars. On the other hand, if it wasn’t fake, why would a decorated actor take a step which he knows could have devastating consequences?
