WWE veteran believes Ric Flair has a death wish

Flair wrestled his last match at a special event back in July 2022, when he teamed with Andrade to defeat the team of Jeff Jarrett and Jay Lethal. Meanwhile, WWE veteran Dutch Mantell recently made an interesting comment on the 16-time world champion.

Speaking exclusively on Sportskeeda's The Wrestling Time Machine, Mantell claimed that Flair has a ''death wish,'' asserting that the 76-year-old wants to die in the ring.

"I think he has a death wish, and I think he wants to die in the ring. Because his last match, you know the old saying in wrestling, 'Hey, did you see Flair's last match? And the answer is, 'God, I hope so,"' he said.

Only time will tell if The Nature Boy returns to the squared circle.
