WWE Hall of Famers Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair claim to have wrestled their last matches, but both men have received lucrative offers to wrestle again in recent weeks.
A Mexican group called Llaves y Candados which is backed by one of the biggest television networks in Mexico, met with TNA officials and Hulk Hogan at the 11/29 Impact tapings in Orlando. Roberto Figueroa made a huge offer to Hulk Hogan to wrestle one show in Mexico, but he reportedly turned them down. Money wasn’t the issue – Hogan simply can’t go anymore. Even the idea of a gimmicked match where a Mexican wrestler ran into his punches and bumped around for him was rejected, which speaks volumes about his physical condition.
Ric Flair has received a big offer to work with an international promotion, despite his claims that he’s retired. The belief is that Flair would wrestle again if the money was right, but he’ll probably wind up back in WWE and they’ve made it clear he won’t be wrestling in a WWE ring again.
