Ric Flair’s Last Match

Ric Flair’s Last Match was a tag team match that pitted some legends of the ring against each other, and crossed the Forbidden Door like never before.

Ric Flair teamed with his son-in-law and AEW star Andrade El Idolo to take on AEW’s Jay Lethal and WWE’s Jeff Jarrett. This mix of promotions had made this a dream match, with Jeff Jarrett taking on a number of AEW’s stars (and former rival Flair) despite appearing the night before at WWE’s Summerslam 2022.

The bulk of the match was wrestled with the other three men, with Flair looking terrible. He collapsed on multiple occasions and had to be helped to his feet to put on the figure four leg lock for the finish. He won the match, but Ric Flair’s last match star rating could reach the minuses, given how awful and scary it was to watch.
