Flair vows never to restart his wrestling days

WWE veteran Ric Flair took a firm decision never to wrestle again in his life. He took this decision after watching his friend Jerry Lawler suffer a heart attack after a match which happened on a Live WWE Raw TV show.

Actually, Flair had officially retired in 2008. But he did make a few appearance for some matches for rival firm TNA from 2010 onwards. He then left TNA and was expected to re-sign for WWE soon. But after the incident, he has vowed to retire for good this time.

Flair said: “I wanted to be in the ring but it will never happen again.

“Firstly, I said I’d never wrestle in WWE again. And then there’s the Jerry Lawler incident. It really did affect me. I like Jerry very much.

“What happened to Jerry was terrible, and thank God he’s OK.”

“But I wish people wouldn’t gauge me by what happened to him. Everybody’s an individual.”

He added: “I think it kind of put a decision on my future in the ring, you know what I mean?

“And that’s fine, because I went back to the ring in TNA, and that will never happen again.”

“I’ll rock the world when I get back on TV. You know that.”

“You don’t even have to ask the question! Everyone knows I’ll rock the world. I’m very excited to get back in there soon.”
