#3 Ric Flair on whether The Undertaker will return to WWE for another match

WrestleMania season is approaching soon and like every year, fans have started wondering whether The Undertaker could return for one more match. Ric Flair recently stated on his podcast that he doesn't think The Phenom will return for another match.

“He doesn’t need the money obviously. He’s been so successful. I think he is so wrapped up with Michelle and the kids and his family... It goes to show you the star power that these guys bring. When they’re sending Steve Austin to Dallas and The Undertaker to Dallas to promote WrestleMania, trust me, everybody else on the roster is having a hard time keeping up with them....you just can’t replace those two legendary characters in terms of doing P.R. for you,” said Ric Flair.

The Undertaker has officially announced his retirement from WWE. However, with WrestleMania 38 taking place in Texas, fans are hopeful to see him at least make an appearance at the show in some capacity.
