Ric Flair returned and presented Superstar of the Year to John Cena and fought WWE Champion CM Punk

Seriously, who else could it have been? Who else could have awarded the supreme Slammy for a tumultuous 2012 than the limousine-ridin', jet-flyin', kiss-stealin', wheelin', dealin' son of a gun himself Ric Flair, returned to WWE after a lengthy hiatus and looking for all the world like he never missed a beat. And like everything he's ever done,"The Nature Boy's" return to WWE did not come to pass without a maelstrom of controversy after the two-time WWE Hall of Famer was awarded the Slammy by its voted recipient, John Cena. But before Flair could take the trophy in his perfectly manicured hands, WWE Champion CM Punk hobbled out to the stage to drop a pipe bomb on Flair's head, unleashing a tirade against "Naitch" and insisting that he, not Flair or Cena, was the true Superstar of the Year.

So how does Ric Flair respond to such a thing? Why, he challenged Punk to a fight. The Second City Saint obliged, too, shattering one of his crutches over Flair's back before The Dirtiest Player in the Game countered by poking Punk in the eye and wrenching Paul Heyman into the Figure-Four Leglock. With Punk and Heyman dispatched, Flair took to the mic to address the Philadelphia crowd ... until the crackling static of The Shield's theme music spelled doom for the two-time WWE Hall of Famer. "Come on down, boys," said Flair, clearly ready for more.
