Ric Flair Explains What Went Wrong In His Last Match

Ric Flair took part in his final pro wrestling match at the end of SummerSlam weekend on July 31. The event, titled Ric Flair’s Last Match, had representation from nearly every major professional wrestling promotion in the world and had a main event of Flair teaming with Andrade El Idolo to face Jay Lethal and Jeff Jarrett. Flair was busted open midway through the match and his bumps were kept to a minimum (both of which were expected), but he spent a good chunk of the latter half of the match seemingly passed out on the canvas. Fans were especially concerned when El Idolo had to slip brass knucks onto his shaking hand just before the finish. “The Nature Boy” even admitted he couldn’t remember most of the match that had just happened in a post-match promo. Flair finally spoke about the match on his To Be The Man Podcast, admitting he passed out twice during the bout due to dehydration.
