Ric Flair Set to Return to the Ring for the Final Match of His Career

At 73 years old, Ric Flair is stepping into the ring for one final match.

Flair confirmed to ESPN on Monday that he’ll make his return to the ring at an independent wrestling show on Sunday, July 31. It will be the first time the pro wrestling and pop culture icon has wrestled since 2011.

“Jim Crockett Promotions Presents: Ric Flair's Last Match” is the name of the event. The show is being held at the Nashville Fairgrounds and will stream live via Fite TV.

“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,” Flair said in a statement.
