Next month, Ric Flair will end his wrestling career for good at the upcoming Starrcast V event.

On July 31, Flair will compete in his last ever match, but that’s just one part of the festivities for the “Dirtiest Player in the Game.”

Two days before he hangs up his boots and robe for good, Flair will be the subject of a comedy roast featuring several legends of wrestling and comedians.

With decades in the industry, there’s a lot of material, but one major name reportedly won’t be appearing.

Tyson is out

Earlier this week it was reported that boxing legend Mike Tyson would be at the roast of the 16-time World Champion.

Tyson, who was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2012, is a known wrestling fan, and has appeared for All Elite Wrestling in recent years.

However, it now looks like “Iron Mike” won’t be appearing after all.

TMZ is reporting that Tyson’s representatives confirmed that he will be missing the Roast of Ric Flair.

“Due to unforseen circumstances, Mike will not be participating in the roast.”

Mike Tyson’s representative, speaking to TMZ.

The end of Ric Flair’s career

Even without Mike Tyson, The Roast of Ric Flair will be an epic celebration of the legendary wrestler.

Details are still scarce about Ric’s last match, as it had initially been reported that he’d be facing his long-time rival Ricky ‘The Dragon’ Steamboat.

Steamboat has since declined the match, and the current belief is that Flair will team with FTR to face the Rock ‘n Roll Express and a mystery partner.

The match hasn’t been confirmed by Starrcast themselves at this time.

Ric Flair will soon be on the receiving end of a roast from boxing legend Mike Tyson.

STARRCAST is helping put together what is being billed as “The Nature Boy’s” swan song. Flair is set to have his final match on July 31 inside the Nashville Fairgrounds. The type of match and participants have not been revealed.

TMZ first reported that Mike Tyson will take part in the “Roast of Ric Flair” on July 29th. STARRCAST has since confirmed the news.

Tyson has made many friends in the wrestling industry over the years. His shoving segment with Stone Cold Steve Austin back in the WWF Attitude Era days is an all-time classic. He also served as a guest host for Monday Night Raw and has made appearances on AEW TV.

The Roast of Ric Flair

In a statement issued by STARRCAST, it was announced that the “Roast of Ric Flair” will feature some of Flair’s closest friends as well as comedians.

“The last weekend in July is going to be Ric’s swan song in a professional wrestling ring, so what better way to send him off before his final match than giving him a proper roast,” asked STARRCAST creator and organizer Conrad Thompson.

“Ric’s career has transcended professional wrestling and made him a pop culture icon. You’ve seen his influence everywhere from sports to hip hop. He’s done it all, except get roasted by some of his dearest friends and the most talented comedians in the world. That all changes on July 29th.”

A lot of people are worried about the health of Ric Flair after he announced an in-ring return at the age of 73. WWE Hall of Famer Gerald Brisco is one such star who is worried that the worst can happen.

The former WWE star recently had an interview with Sportskeeda. He discussed the Nature Boy’s decision to wrestle one final match later this year.

Brisco gave words to the fear of a lot of fans. He mentioned how Flair has a pacemaker installed in his heart and a wrong bump can lead to catastrophic results:

“He’s got a damn pacemaker and it worries me. I’ve talked to doctors and a certain bump in the wrong direction, or a certain chop or something like that, and that thing can dislodge and he can drop dead.

I don’t want to see Ric Flair drop dead.” said Gerald Brisco, “I don’t want to be a part of that. I wish him well.”

The wrestling veteran noted that this is the worst-case scenario and Ric Flair will probably get through the match with flying colors.

Brisco said that what really scares him is what will happen if the 16-time world champion does emerge from the bout unscathed. He noted that it can encourage Ric to do it once again and take even more risks down the line.

Ric Flair is getting ready for an in-ring return later this year and he is taking top rope bumps at the age of 73 in preparation for the same.

The Nature Boy announced last month that he will be having a final match later this year. The bout is scheduled for Starrcast V on July 31, during the SummerSlam weekend.

While an opponent for him is yet to be announced, Flair has already started preparing for his in-ring return. He has been training with Jay Lethal to get back in the ring shape.

Ric Flair Takes Top Rope Bump Ahead Of Final Match

After teasing a top rope bump for his last match, the 16-time world champion shared the following video of taking a slam from the top rope on Twitter:

Ric Flair previously explained why he is making this commitment at his age. He explained that he wasn’t satisfied with his last outing and wanted to make things right.

His last match was broadcasted on Impact back in 2011. He competed against Sting in a singles bout in which The Icon came out victorious.

Who do you think will face the wrestling legend in his final match? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section below.

Ric Flair is once again teaming up with WWE as well as FOX Sports’ Tom Rinaldi for a new documentary that is promising to give fans their most unprecedented look yet at legendary pro wrestling. 

The documentary will be two hours that will feature “never before revealed history about him. No further details on when it is set to release or on what platform were revealed. 

This will be Flair’s first project with WWE since he was granted his release back on August 3, 2021. ESPN previously did a “30 for 30” documentary about his life and career. 

Flair was heavily criticized after Vice TV’s Dark Side of the Ring episode covering “The Plane Ride From Hell” aired last year because of the allegations made against him. 

The episode featured an interview from Heidi Doyle, former a flight attendant, who alleged that he exposed himself to her while wearing a robe and forced her to touch his penis. At the time, CarShield decided to pause their commercials featuring Flair, but they continued their relationship with the WWE Hall Of Famer. Flair denied the allegations at the time. 

Flair is coming out of retirement for what is touted as his final match on July 31 at the Starrcast event in Nashville, TN that will air on FITE.TV. Flair is expected to team with AEW’s FTR against The Rock N’ Roll Express and a mystery partner.

Ric Flair has yet to announce an opponent for his return match set for the Starrcast V. Rumors are rampant on who it may actually be.

One such wild rumor that had been circulating recently is that Hulk Hogan will be coming out of retirement to face the 16-time world champion.

Flair was asked about these speculations by Conrad Thompson on the latest episode of his podcast. Replying to it, Ric confirmed that Hogan will be present at the show, but he wouldn’t actually be wrestling:

“Not that I know. I think you would have run that by me…He’s invited. I’ve talked to him personally to come to the roast and come watch the match. But yeah, he hasn’t confirmed for sure but I’m pretty sure he’ll be there.”

• Ric Flair Addresses Concerns About In-Ring Return

Ric Flair has announced that he will be returning to the ring for the first time in more than a decade later this year. His in-ring return will take place at the upcoming Starrcast V event over the SummerSlam weekend.

Explaining the reasoning behind his decision, the 2 time Hall of Famer has claimed that he wasn’t happy with his final match. Flair last wrestled back in 2011 where he competed against Sting.

Quotes via WrestlingNews.co

Ric Flair’s decision to get back in the ring after more than a decade is garnering more concern from fans than it’s generating excitement, but the nature boy is trying to convince everyone that he is ready to go.

The 16-time world champion spoke to TMZ. He talked about things such as his training for the upcoming match and explained why he is returning to the squared circle.

Addressing the concerns about his health, Ric Flair said that he has consulted 40 different doctors and decided that he was only going to listen to one:

“I don’t have any aches or pains. I know I’ve had the health issues, but I asked 40 different doctors, and I decided I’m only gonna listen to one. Not necessarily the one that was gonna give me the right answer, but that I felt the most comfortable with,”

Speaking about the reason behind his comeback, Ric Flair explained that he is not content with his last couple of matches: “I couldn’t stand the last couple of matches I had. Couldn’t stand the last year I had,”

• Conrad Thompson Addresses Ricky Steamboat Declining Ric Flair Match

Flair last wrestled during an Impact Wrestling episode back in September 2011. He was defeated by Sting in a match that lasted about 15 minutes.

Ric Flair is set to make his return after more than a decade at Starrcast V during the SummerSlam weekend on July 31. An opponent for the WWE Hall of Famer is yet to be named.

Ric Flair has addressed those who are concerned about his decision to return to the ring this summer.

Since it was announced that Flair will be making an in-ring return in tag team action on July 31, some have voiced concern about Flair wrestling at his age. Especially given his past health issues. However, Flair addressed these concerns on a recent episode of his podcast.

Flair explained that he has spoken to doctors about wrestling with a pacemaker. The doctors seem to think there’s enough scar tissue around it for Flair to give it a shot.

“The Nature Boy” added that he’s not doing this for money. He just wants to do something he’s done his whole life, something he loves.

“So, I almost died four years ago. I got a pacemaker. I almost died of a blood clot. I had four heart operations in seven weeks. I’m good to go. I will decide on when I want to go.

“So this is not about the money. This is about me doing what I’ve done my whole life. I watch wrestling every day because I love it, and I respect the guys in it.

“Everybody’s got a different opinion. So I follow one heart doctor that I have the most confidence in, the guy I like the most. I called him and said I wanted to do this. The only thing I was worried about was getting in with a pacemaker.

“He said, ‘Ric, there’s enough scar tissue around that thing now that I believe it’ll hold. If you want to do it, do it.’ That was the answer. That was the only concern.

“The other concern, which I haven’t had in a long time, would have been when I get dizzy because of the equilibrium issue that I have with the inner ear problem, but I haven’t had that since I wrestled Edge in a ladder match.

“So, just a couple of concerns, but I’m not afraid of it. I have more self confidence, which is important for me personally, than I had when I wrestled Shawn, especially because this will be a tag match format.”

The 73-year-old Flair will compete in a tag team match on July 31 inside the Nashville Fairgrounds. Opponents have yet to be announced. The event will air on FITE TV with tickets going on sale May 27.

It is being advertised as Ric Flair’s final match.

Ric Flair’s Last Match

In a press release sent in to SEScoops, Starrcast provides the official details:

“On July 31st, at 6:05pm EDT, ‘The Nature Boy’ Ric Flair, who many consider the greatest professional wrestler of all-time, is set to return to the ring, one final time, as part of ‘Jim Crockett Promotions Presents: Ric Flair’s Last Match’ wrestling event.”

“Taking place at the world famous Nashville Fairgrounds, the 16-time former World Heavyweight Champion will don a new custom-made robe and bring the one-of-a-kind showmanship that has made Flair a cultural icon for his over-40 years in the professional wrestling business.”

Tickets for Ric Flair’s Last Match go on sale next Friday, May 27th at RicFlairsLastMatch.com.

Here’s the official hype video for Ric Flair’s Last Match:

Quotes via NoDq.com

Ric Flair is trading his robes and titles for a tuxedo and dried martini (shaken not stirred!) in a new comic about the Nature Boy.

The comic ‘CODENAME: Ric Flair’ will launch this summer, with a special preview of the project this weekend at Megacon Orlando.

The comic is based on the 1975 plane crash that nearly ended Flair’s career but starts a double-life as a secret agent after being healed by doctors.

“Richard Fliehr, a mild-mannered professional wrestler, almost dies in a small twin engine plane on the way to a regional wrestling match. The doctors not only save his life – they rebuild him better than before. Treatment makes him stronger than ever and Fliehr is reborn as Ric Flair aka Nature Boy®, who must now use his wrestling persona as cover while he works to save the world as secret agent Nature Boy®.”

Flair will be at Megacon Orlando this weekend to promote the comic, which will launch later this year on Kickstarter.

Flair and Comic Books

This may be Flair’s first time as a secret agent, but the Nature Boy is no stranger to comics.

As part of WCW, Flair was often part of the comics tied to the company which saw him feud with some of the biggest names in wrestling, both on-screen and on the page.

In a 2018 WWE Royal Rumble special comic, Flair’s iconic victory in the 1992 Rumble match was covered.

Conrad Thompson has responded to those who are concerned with his father-in-law, Ric Flair, wrestling again one last time.

Thompson took to one of the many podcasts he co-hosts, My World With Jeff Jarrett, to address the issue. He asks if the people who are concerned with Flair wrestling again are the same ones who were calling for The Undertaker to have one more match.

“The Nature Boy is going to walk that aisle one last time. I know there’s been some pushback and people who were all of a sudden are very concerned about Ric Flair’s well being.

“I wonder if those are the same folks who are clamoring for Undertaker to have one more match, or what they felt about Vince McMahon wrestling at WrestleMania, or Jerry Lawler wrestling every other weekend.

“It’s not uncommon in Tennessee for these Tennessee boys to strut around, and by the way, Tennessee is the birthplace of Ric Flair. How fun is it that it’s come full circle with Jim Crockett promotions and him and one more match?

“Let me just say that I’m smarter than I look. We got some fun ideas for the show and I think some naysayers are going to come around and they’re going to like this idea.”

The 73-year-old Flair is expected to share the ring with longtime on-screen rival Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat.

Early reports suggest, however, that it won’t be a singles match. The current plan is to have Flair and FTR team up against Rock N’ Roll Express and “someone else.”

The match is being promoted under “Jim Crockett” promotions and will be produced by Thuzio, a Triller Company. Everything is currently set for July 31 at the Starrcast event in Nashville, Tennessee.

Should Steamboat actually step in for the match, it will be his first since a 2010 FCW tag team match with his son against Caylen Croft & Trent Baretta. Flair and Steamboat haven’t wrestled each other since 1994.

Quotes via WrestlingNewsCo

Ric Flair isn’t the only person coming out of retirement as Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat has the same idea. 

Fightful Select reports that there are plans for the 69-year-old to come out of retirement to wrestle another match as Flair and Steamboat will be facing each other. It won’t be a singles match, but rather Dave Meltzer has reported that he was told by Flair that it will be FTR & Flair vs. Rock N’ Roll Express and “someone else.”

Obviously, that someone else will be Steamboat if the plan goes accordingly on July 31 at the Starrcast event in Nashville, TN. 

This would mark Steamboat’s first match since a 2010 FCW tag team match with his son against Caylen Croft & Trent Baretta. The bout will also mark them competing across six different decades. 

Steamboat and Flair have wrestled each other hundreds of times with their last being in 1994. The report noted this match has been in the plans for Starrcast for several weeks with Steamboat meeting with Conrad Thompson in person. 

One of the angles for the show was to help provide Flair and Steamboat with memorable final matches as both likely didn’t expect what was their last match to be so. 

Ric Flair will indeed be walking down the aisle for a wrestling match one more time.

Starrcast has announced that Flair will end the month of July with the final match of his pro wrestling career. He’ll be in action on July 31 inside the Nashville Fairgrounds. An opponent has not been revealed at this time.

The event will be airing live on FITE TV. Tickets go on sale on May 27.

Flair had been teasing making a comeback by releasing a couple of videos capturing his training sessions with AEW star Jay Lethal.

“I’m going to walk that aisle, one last time to prove once and for all, that to be the Man, you’ve got to beat the Man.”

Here’s the official hype video for Ric Flair’s Last Match:

One former WCW personality is hoping that Ric Flair doesn’t go through with plans to return to in-ring action.

Flair, who is 73 years old, has been pushing to get inside the squared circle once again. He’s posted a couple of training videos with Jay Lethal where he’s actually taking bumps inside the ring.

Ric Flair To Be Blocked From Returning?

This has left some concerned including former WCW announcer Chris Cruise.

In a lengthy statement on social media, Cruise revealed an email he sent to the Maryland State Athletic Commission urging them to refuse Ric Flair a license to wrestle:

“Hey you rubes, I screw around here a lot, but this is serious: Ric Flair should not be allowed to wrestle. Some reports indicate he has been working out with Jay Lethal in preparation to returning to the ring. He can’t be stopped from doing so in states that don’t have athletic commissions and licensing protocols, but insurance companies can step in and refuse to issue a bond to a promotion that books him. And for those states that do have commissions, they should be contacted to demand that they not allow Flair to wrestle. Simply put, Ric Flair returning to the ring is not wise. No how, no way. He’s 73, in poor health, an alcoholic, and has a pacemaker installed.

“Today I emailed the following to the Maryland State Athletic Commission, since I live in Maryland, and will contact other commissions as well. I would encourage you to also email the commission (athletic@dllr.state.md.us) and urge its members to deny Flair a license. It won’t take long, and could help keep Flair alive. Here is the email I sent:

‘To the Commissioners of the Maryland State Athletic Commission:

‘Recently, published reports indicate the professional wrestler known as Ric Flair, who is 73 and has a pacemaker, is considering returning to the ring. Obviously, that is not wise. It’s almost as if he wants to die in the ring.

‘I am writing as a citizen of Maryland to express my concern about the prospect of Mr. Fleihr being granted a license to wrestle in this state. I’m sure you understand how disastrous it would be for the Commission if he died in the ring during a performance for which you granted him a license.

‘I’d like to know what standards the Commission has for granting a license to a professional wrestler. Is a physical examination required? Are athletes over 70 and who have a pacemaker installed allowed to wrestle professionally in Maryland?

‘I look forward to your reply.'”

Flair is rumored to be gearing up for a tag team match that would see him paired with FTR to take on The Rock ‘n Roll Express and a mystery partner. Once again, this is only a rumor.

Wrestling legend Ric Flair has been back in the ring as of late. The 73-year-old Hall of Famer is taking bumps and showing fans that he can still “go.”

He isn’t just hitting the ropes for old time’s sake. Ric Flair is reportedly training for an in-ring return, despite his advanced age and recent health issues.

Flair has been training with former ROH World Champion and AEW star, Jay Lethal.

Ric Flair’s Return to the Ring

The word going around is that Ric Flair will compete in a 6-man tag team match that would see him aligned with FTR. Their opponents would be The Rock ‘n Roll Express and a mystery partner.

Whether or not this match ever comes together remains to be seen. There are several ways where this plan could fizzle out, including Flair’s health and the ‘business’ side of the equation. At this stage, this should be considered a rumor – but it’s definitely being talked about amongst people in the industry.

Ric Flair retired back in 2008 when he lost to Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 24. He’d go on to wrestle several more times, including the “Hulkamania: Let The Battle Begin” tour of Australia in November 2009 and for Impact Wrestling (2011). Flair made several wrestling appearances last year, including for WWE, AAA and the NWA.

Outside the ring, Flair has remained very active on the fan convention circuit. He’s also launching a new NFT collection (WoooooThings) and a line of cannabis products with boxing icon “Iron” Mike Tyson.

He’s also been involved in a nasty feud with Becky Lynch and wants to manage former WWE Superstar Cesaro (Claudio Castagnoli), wherever he shows up next.

Say what you want about Ric Flair, and there’s a lot to say, but he shows no signs of slowing down. The man who was once known as the Dirtiest Player in the Game remains one of the sport’s most talked about figures.

The videos that Ric Flair has been posting with AEW’s Jay Lethal as of late of them working in the ring isn’t just for fun. 

Dave Meltzer is reporting that Flair is training to wrestle again for the first time since 2011. He’s 73 years old. Meltzer wrote, “Ric Flair is training to wrestle again. The stories about his return are accurate.”

Flair hasn’t wrestled since 2011 when Sting defeated him on an episode of Impact Wrestling. He did do matches during a Hulkamania tour in Australia and Impact Wrestling, his in-ring career was mostly over as he was an on-screen character. 

He had his first retirement match in 2008 when Shawn Michaels defeated Flair at WrestleMania 24. 

Flair left WWE last year and has made a few appearances since then including at AAA’s Triplemania XXIX event and NWA’s 73rd Anniversary last year. 

His last high-profile appearance came in an episode of Dark Side of the Ring that aired in September regarding the Plane Ride From Hell incident. This is where a flight attendant accused Flair of sexual assault. Flair denied the allegations.

The Nature Boy Ric Flair spoke about his escapades on the road in the latest edition of his To Be The Man podcast.

The former 16-time world champion specifically recounted some stories from his time with the legendary faction Evolution, which as a reminder, consisted of himself, Randy Orton, Dave Bautista, and The Game, Triple H. The foursome at one point all held WWE gold, and is considered one of the most important factions in the company’ s long history.

Flair begins his tale by revealing that the nightlife for each man was drastically different. He says that Triple H didn’t go out the same way he did, and Orton decided to “stray away” due to the amount of spending he would do. That left Flair and the Animal to hit the town together.

“Well, Hunter didn’t go out. Randy kind of strayed away because we were living pretty large. The best times I had was taking Dave Bautista to these country bars in these small towns and having Dave take off his shirt.The girls like Dave. “

Despite not going out on the town Triple H did spend time with the group. Flair recalls that the Cerebral Assassin would spend more of his money eating than anything else, even comparing it to the insane amount of cash he threw down for alcohol.

“Hunter spent more money on food than I spent on booze. You eat six New York Strips a day at thirty bucks apiece, that adds up.”

Evolution’s biggest run was between 2003 and 2005 on the Raw brand, but they would reform down the line in 2007, as well as in 2014 for a marquee feud against The Shield. The group’s eventual breakup led to Orton and Batista transitioning from member lackey’s to superstar solo-performers, the affects of which are still being felt in today’s product.

Ric Flair was recently back in the ring and wants the world to know he can still “do this.”

The 73-year-old living legend has been retired for years. Back in 2017, he was fighting for his life and in critical condition due to various health complications. He was placed into a medically-induced coma, but made a miraculous recovery.

Try as you may, you can try to take the Nature Boy out of wrestling, but you can’t take the love of pro wrestling out of Ric Flair.

On Monday, Ric Flair posted a video on social media of himself taking bumps with AEW star Jay Lethal. Flair says he was inspired to show off his abilities after someone had the audacity to question if he can still “go” in the ring. He wrote:

“Someone had the audacity this weekend to ask me if I can still do this. I said “Really??? Naitch don’t play! WOOOOO!”

– Ric Flair

Flair has publicly flirted with the idea of wrestling another match, as many retired pro wrestlers tend to do. We hope this never happens, but it’s good to see Flair looking healthy enough to take a few bumps and relive what he spent so many years doing.

Ric Flair Back in the Ring

As seen below, Flair takes a few bumps, including a headlock takedown, a bodyslam and a running shoulder tackle. He also gets in some offense of his own, and what video of Ric Flair and Jay Lethal would be complete without a strut-off?

Watch Ric Flair in the ring taking bumps at 73-years-old:

Flair has uploaded another video of himself taking bumps in the ring with Jay Lethal. On May 11th, Flair released a video titled, “Ric Flair vs. Jay Lethal Round 2”

Ric Flair and Mark Madden are going their separate ways after 19 episodes of the Wooooo! Uncensored podcast.

On Sunday night, Madden announced he was moving on from the project. He said the show was not a “good fit” for him, and cited his busy schedule and the extensive preparation required for each episode. He thanked Flair for the opportunity.

Things got ugly very quickly when Flair clarified that he, in fact, relieved Madden of his duties.

Madden responded by saying Flair “didn’t have the balls” to fire him personally, and instead told him that the show was being cancelled. Madden said Flair had Conrad Thompson do his dirty work for him, and questioned why things had to transpire as they did, in light of their 35-year friendship.

Flair replied, “Mark, it’s so sad. You’ve been telling everyone for 30 years that I’m the greatest wrestler ever. Quit trying to get the rub that made you who you are! Look forward to hearing you on The Pat McAfee Show. Oh wait, sorry, he cancelled you too! Just be happy and enjoy life!”

Madden told Flair to “have another drink” and said it’s said what Ric Flair has become.

Madden told Flair again, “Have another drink.”

Madden added that Flair was slated to appear for AEW, before the “Plane Ride From Hell” episode of Dark Side of the Ring aired. Since then, Khan cut all ties with the “toxic” Nature Boy, including disinviting him from his birthday party.

WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair and boxing legend Mike Tyson are now business partners.

Tyson, who is no stranger to the world of pro wrestling, is also a player in the world of legal cannabis. Back in December, he launched Tyson 2.0, which produces a line of premium cannabis strains sold through select retailers in Massachusetts and Nevada.

Tyson serves as the company’s Chief Brand Officer.

Ric Flair’s Tyson 2.0 Cannabis Products

Tyson 2.0 has acquired a majority stake in Ric Flair Drip Inc., an actual business entity owned by Ric Flair. The deal will see a line of Ric Flair-themed cannabis products.

In a press release sent out on Thursday, Flair commented on his entry into the world of legal marijuana. “Thanks to Mike Tyson and Tyson 2.0, I’ve become a true cannabis advocate and enthusiast,” said Flair. “I am thrilled to partner with a long time friend and fellow warrior whom I greatly admire and respect.”

“Tyson 2.0 products make me go ‘WOOOOO!’, and soon my fans everywhere can get in the Ric Flair state of mind – limousine riding, jet-flying, feeling good, and ‘WOOOOO!'”

– Ric Flair

Flair says there are a lot of synergies between him and Mike Tyson. They’ve both experienced extreme highs and lows throughout their personal and professional lives.

The Nature Boy tweeted a photo with Tyson on Thursday from Mike Tyson’s podcast studio, so it looks like Flair will be appearing on an upcoming episode of Hotboxin’ With Mike Tyson.

Tyson 2.0 recently released Mike Bites, a line of cannabis-infused gummies in the shape of an ear with a bite taken out of it.

WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair is back with another ‘hot take’ that’s sure to get wrestling fans talking.

On the latest episode of his Wooooo Nation Uncensored podcast, Flair and co-host Mark Madden discussed the new WWE Evil series on Peacock. The show focuses on the greatest villains in WWE history, but Flair’s conversation with Madden also covered some of the sport’s best babyfaces

Flair praised AJ Styles, who he’s worked with in TNA/Impact and WWE. Flair said Styles is a versatile performer who is likable on and off screen.

“AJ is one of the greatest babyfaces of all time,” said Flair. “When he wants to be, he can be soft and mellow, which he really is in real life. He’s a very humble guy. He’s very likable. He can do anything.”

The conversation shifted to Bryan Danielson, who now wrestles for AEW. Flair said Danielson is “very good,” but he is not in the same league as AJ Styles.

Flair wasn’t just talking about Styles being a better babyface than Danielson. In fact, he said Styles superior in every way.

“Bryan Danielson is very good, but he’s not AJ Styles,” Flair said. “C’mon.. It’s a big stretch to say Danielson is in any way better than AJ Styles.”

Listen to the latest episode of Ric Flair’s Wooooo Uncensored Podcast:

Author’s Opinion: Bryan Danielson and AJ Styles are regarded as two of the greatest pro wrestlers of this generation. There are many metrics one could use to evaluate a modern pro wrestler: In-ring work-rate, promos, memorable moments, career longevity, and many more. You could make a case that Styles it he superior wrestler, or vice versa. To say that Styles is better than Danielson “in every way” is quite a stretch.

Watch: AJ Styles vs. Bryan Danielson (Daniel Bryan)

Cesaro has not revealed his next move after his WWE departure yet but Ric Flair is interested in managing the Swiss Superman in AEW if he gets the chance.

On the 16th episode of his Woo Nation Uncensored podcast, the 16-time world champion discussed things such as Jeff Hardy’s AEW debut and more.

He was also asked if he would like to manage the former WWE star. Replying to it, Flair said that he would love to teach Cesaro how to be nasty:

“Manage him? I’d love it! Then you work on him with little things that make him nasty. You’ve never seen him be nasty. You take a guy with his skill and his strength and teach how to be nasty, just little tricks of the trade, he’d be really hot.

If I was managing him, I would call Tony Khan out to the ring and I’d knock him down from behind” said Ric Flair, “and have Cesaro give him a giant swing and put him in a hospital for a month.”

• Ric Flair Reveals What He Told Cody Rhodes After AEW Departure

The wrestling veteran also talked about Cesaro’s WWE career. He said that the former US champion’s matches with Seth Rollins were the high point of his career.

Flair explained that he liked the Bar but his matches with Seth were really good. He claimed that he has never seen Cesaro have a bad match.

Charlotte Flair says she can’t control her father, Ric Flair, and how vocal he is about issues related to her career.

The SmackDown Women’s Champion was interviewed by Hot 97 this week to promote WrestleMania 38 and Saturday’s WWE live event from Madison Square Garden.

The Nature Boy has been very outspoken about Charlotte’s career and has made headlines when talking about her being underutilized. Ric Flair also has an ongoing beef with Becky Lynch.

During for a conversation with Peter Rosenberg, Ebro and Laura Stylez, Charlotte said she’s spoken to her father about reigning in the things he says. However, she realizes Ric Flair is his own man with his own opinions.

“I’ve tried to control that and I’ve realized that I can’t,” said Charlotte about her father’s controversial comments. “So, whether my dad’s my biggest cheerleader or what… He’s gonna say what he wants to say and I can’t persuade him any other way.”

Charlotte feels that Ric Flair’s comments about her career and her co-workers come from a place of love. “My dad would do anything in the world for me and how much he loves me, and my career means everything to him. So, I’m gonna try not to fight that battle anymore.”

She doesn’t think she needs to be protected by her father, but at the end of the day, she still considers herself “daddy’s little girl.”

Charlotte Flair vs. Ronda Rousey

Charlotte Flair will battle 2022 Women’s Royal Rumble winner Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania Saturday.

The women first met at Survivor Series 2018. Their match did not have much build or backstory at the time, but Charlotte says they earned one another’s respect that night. She compares Ronda Rousey to Kurt Angle, as others have, when describing how quickly she excelled in pro wrestling.

“I mean, just she picked up so quickly,” she said of Rousey. “It’s all about instinct and she has the instinct and that’s half the battle. You can be in this business for a long time and never figure out instinct, in my opinion.”

2x WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan recently claimed that he is the second-best professional wrestler of all time.

During a night out with the ‘Nature Boy’ Ric Flair, the ‘Immortal’ Hogan claimed on a club’s PA that he was the second-best ever and that Flair was the greatest of all time.

“Well, let me tell you something brother! I want everybody in here, on the one, two, three, to give me a ‘Wooo!’ for the greatest wrestler of all time. One! Two! Three! Wooo! Hey, thank you guys for coming out” Hulk stated whilst out partying with the Nature Boy.

“This is the greatest wrestler of all time, Ric Flair” the former WCW and WWE Champion continued, praising Flair.

Hogan also claimed that Stone Cold Steve Austin was the third greatest ever, saying “In honour of the third greatest wrestler ever, ’cause he’s #1, I’m #2. In honour of the third greatest wrestler of all time, that no good Rattlesnake, Steve Austin. Somebody give me a hell yeah!” Hogan concluded.

Check out the video below to see the Hulkster out partying with Flair and making some pretty big claims about the pro wrestling industry.

It’s likely that we will never see any of the three men back in a pro wrestling ring ever again.

But, do you agree with Hogan? If not who is your top three picks for the best professional wrestlers of all time? Let us know in the comments.

Wrestling legend Ric Flair is taking aim at Becky Lynch once again.

The war of words between these two has been ongoing for quite some time. From their dispute over who is truly The Man to Lynch’s rocky relationship with Charlotte, these two really do not get along.

In the lead-up to Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair’s match at Survivor Series, Flair said “there’s not enough choreography in the business to save you.”

Flair got a ton of negative attention from the Dark Side of the Ring episode about the Plane Ride from Hell. Lynch was asked about that situation and her beef with Charlotte Flair during a November interview with Ariel Helwani. She didn’t hold back.

“It’s really sad, because this is a legend at one point, Ric Flair is now jealous of me,” said Lynch. “It’s cool for me, he’s now using me to get clout to promote whatever he has going on because he’s dug himself into a hole with other things.”

Flair Says Lynch has “No Drip”

Last month, Ric Flair attempted to slight Becky Lynch once again, seemingly out of the blue. Lynch took a photo with rap group Migos over the weekend at the WWE Day 1 pay-per-view. Migos is comprised of Offset, Quavo and Takeoff.

Flair previously worked with Offset for the Ric Flair Drip music video. He posted a comparison photo of them both and claims Becky Lynch ‘has no drip and never will.’ Flair has since deleted the tweet.

Ric Flair & Becky Lynch Beef Continues

On the latest episode of his Wooooo Nation podcast, Ric Flair hurled insults at Becky Lynch yet again. Flair called Becky Lynch generic, stupid and out of her mind.

While talking about Ronda Rousey’s return to WWE, Flair ran down Big Time Becks for referring to Rousey as Ronnie.

“Anybody who is stupid enough to call her ‘Ronnie’ and make a joke of her presence, what she brings to the company, is out of their mind,” said Flair.

Becky Lynch fired back at the Nature Boy with a zinger of her own. She told her 2.1 million Twitter followers, “Work so hard your heroes become your rivals. Then, become so good, Ric Flair loses his mind every time you breathe.”
