The San Francisco 49ers are taking on the Green Bay Packers Sunday in the Wild Card round of the NFL Playoffs. We’ve seen teams bring in linebacker Ray Lewis for a pep talk, but the 49ers looked to the WWE for inspiration bringing in legend and 16-time Heavyweight Champion of the World Ric Flair for a pre-game speech.
Whooo! Nature Boy Ric Flair fired up the #49ers on the #QuestForSix. pic.twitter.com/9llsGy3jv5

One 49ers offensive lineman was particularly fired up and took some shots at Green Bay.
Some of his teammates were excited as well, but less controversial.
