One more final time? There are all kinds of wrestlers in the world but a lot of them have things in common. One of the biggest is the inability to finally hang up their boots and walk away. It is rare to see a wrestler who truly retires for good, as almost everyone makes a comeback of some sort. Now we might be seeing another one, which could get people talking for the wrong reasons.
Free agent Ric Flair has posted a pair of tweets, including a photo of himself in the gym showing off his bicep and a video from a Monday Night Raw of himself saying he will never retire. While not confirmed, this could suggest that Flair, 72, is looking to return to wrestling, possibly in a physical role. There is nothing to suggest that Flair has already signed a new deal since his release from WWE last month. His most recent match took place on August 18, 2011.

Where do you begin with Flair? Check out some of his greatest moments:
Opinion: Please do not let Flair wrestle again. At the end of the day, he is 72 years old, has not wrestled in about ten years and has had all kinds of healthy issues. I understand that he wants back into wrestling and if that is the case then let him come out, talk and leave the rest to someone else. There is no need to risk his health and I would hope that promoters would realize that.
Where will Flair sign next? Will he wrestle again? Let us know in the comments below.
