Flair lost his retirement match against Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 24. The following night on Monday Night RAW, WWE organized a celebration for the 16-time world champion, in which almost all WWE Superstars paid tribute to the retiring legend.

However, in 2010, Flair came out of retirement to join TNA. The Nature Boy opened up about his decision to join TNA following his retirement from WWE when he hosted Shawn Michaels on his Woooo! Nation podcast.

"There [are] a couple of things I regret. Number one was ever going to work for TNA. That’s my own fault. It was just a lot of money to wrestle 65 days a year, right? 65 days and make a lot of money. Do you know what I mean? Not WWE money, but pretty good money to do nothing. And I made a lot of friends." admitted Flair

Flair said that although everyone was nice to him at TNA, it was hard for him to work elsewhere after WWE.

"I don’t have any bad things to say about TNA or the people there at all. After being in the WWE, it’s pretty hard to work any place else because you’re always comparing them no matter how hard you try not to." Flair added

Flair spent two years at TNA before returning to WWE as a non-wrestling personality. The Nature Boy played a part in the feud between his daughter Charlotte and Lacey Evans earlier this year. However, the storyline had to be canceled after Evans' pregnancy.
