Ric Flair Breaks Silence Following Surprise AEW Debut
Ric Flair has commented for the first time since making his surprise AEW debut on Dynamite last night.
The Nature Boy was revealed to be Tony Khan’s gift to Sting after The Icon announced last week that he will wrestle for the final time at AEW Revolution next year. Flair claimed he will be with Sting in AEW all the way until his retirement in March.
During his appearance last night, Flair drew the ire of TNT Champion Christian Cage who claimed that if there was a God, Ric Flair would have died 20 years ago and that The Nature Boy was “turning into dust.”
The segment ended with a six-man tag team match being set up for AEW Full Gear where Christian Cage, Luchasaurus, and Nick Wayne will face Sting, Darby Allin, and a partner of their choosing. Thankfully, it does not look like Flair will be taking that spot.
Posting on his X account earlier today, Flair offered his first comments following his AEW debut and indicated that he is here to stay in AEW in order to accompany Sting during the last few months of his legendary career.
