• “Nobody wants me to die on their watch” – WWE Hall Of Famer On One More Match
During the latest episode of his Wooo Nation Uncensored podcast, 2-time WWE Hall Of Famer “The Nature Boy” Ric Flair said he can have one more match, but no major promotion wants to take that risk.
Flair also claimed that he’s in better shape now than he was in 2001.
Here’s what Flair said:
“Most assuredly, and a lot of conversation. That talk hasn’t happened, but could I do it? Absolutely. I’m in better shape now than I was when Sting and I wrestled the last match on Nitro.
WWE won’t let me do anything, even though I’m released.
I understand, they have so much liability and I told them I would sign anything, but nobody wants me to die on their watch.
I’d rather die in the ring. If I have to go. I’d rather not jump off the 19th floor or spend another 31 days in the ICU.”
