- It looks like the Nature Boy Ric Flair will indeed resume his wrestling career although it won't be for World Wrestling Entertainment. In an interview with the Associated Press, the sixteen time World Heavyweight champion and WWE Hall of Famer said that he's not going to take no easily.
"Do I think I will [wrestle]? Yes. Like I've said, I haven't retired, they retired me," said Flair, pointing out the angle he did leading up to WrestleMania XXIV where if he lost a match he would have been forced to retire.
In his latest blog, Smackdown color commentator Jim Ross said he had no doubts now that Flair hasn't wrestled his last match.
"I don't think that his next in ring wrestling outing will be for WWE but internationally Ric has many lucrative offers that a 60 year old man with somewhat staggering, personal financial obligations likely cannot pass up," fellow Hall of Famer JR said.
In his AP interview, Flair pretty much summed it up to one short sentence.
"If Brett Favre can come back once in a while, I certainly can."
