Fans took to Twitter to express varying opinions over the final match of two-time WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair.

The Nature Boy made headlines after he announced that at 73 years old, he would be making his way to the ring for one final match on July 31. The event took place at the Nashville Municipal Auditorium under the Jim Crockett Promotions banner.

Now that the match has ended, the majority of fans have seemingly not taken too keenly on what went down. They even hoped that this would mark his last match. One fan even said that his match against Shawn Michaels during WrestleMania 24 should've been the final one:

Despite the negative comments, Flair still managed to garner a handful of positive opinions. Some thanked the legend after years of entertainment and even praised the show altogether:

One fan then talked about the possibility of Flair entering the ring once again. He noted that due to the wrestler's age, it's safe to assume that this would indeed be his last match:
