Ric Flair is one of the most legendary members in WWE history. He’s a 16-time WWE world champion and has been an integral member of the team. Flair last wrestled in 2011. He had been in an on-screen role since 2012.
It’ll be interesting to see where Flair goes from here. He’s 72 years old and hasn’t wrestled since 2011. What does his future have in store? You’d have to imagine hill stick in the wrestling world in some capacity. He’s too big a name to simply walk away from it all.
Ric Flair was underutilized in WWE they should’ve pushed him when they had the chance smh.
