WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair will compete in his final match in the “Jim Crockett Promotions Presents: Ric Flair’s Last Match” event over the Starrcast V weekend.
Today saw the release of the second installment of the “Ric Flair’s Last Match” documentary series. It features a graphic beatdown scene in which WWE Hall of Famer & Senior Vice President of Live Events Jeff Jarrett, AEW/ROH star Jay Lethal and Karen Angle took Flair out as David Crockett looked on. AEW’s Andrade El Idolo and Flair then made an appearance, announcing the tag team match. Next week, the third installment of the docuseries will air, featuring the contract signing and other events. The episode from today is shown below.
Jarrett and Lethal will compete against Flair and Andrade in the match. Karen will accompany Jeff and Lethal to the ring.
Flair has been training with Lethal for months, and Jarrett was present at his recent press appearance. He has also been working with Flair’s other son-in-law, Starrcast promoter Conrad Thompson, on his new project.
Earlier today, it was revealed that Flair had a foot injury. Apparently, the injury won’t affect his match later this month.
