@@henrygvidonas9573 Not normalizing it, just saying it's pointless to expect Ric Flair to change at this stage of jos life. The man is 73 years old, he's outlived most of his professional contemporaries. Even if he dies tomorrow he would have lived a life most people can't even dream. I'm not gonna waste time feeling "scared, bad or sorry" for him. What's the worst that can happen? He's gonna pass away? That will happen regardless, even if he was in his bed.He's lived a 100 lifetimes.

His hands started shaking earlier than the superplex. There's a point you can see from the fancam footage about 15 minutes in. he's on the apron and starts looking at his hands in a really disturbing manner completely ignoring the double down in the ring. The ref has to go over to him and remind him he needs to come in to interfere and he takes forever going under the middle rope to do so then Jay Lethal bounces through a dozen flips and spots while Flair hits the weakest chops ever seen. I can imagine what Taker said to him at the end when he whispered in his ear and I hope Ric listens.

Ric is my forever spirit animal! Greatest man, True St Patrick spirit! Love it! ✨🌞❤️🍀🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉✨

I wonder if Ric Flair could do it all over again, if he would’ve settled for WM24 being the final match?

I think more than anything the WWE office were worried that something awful was going to happen on the show and didn’t want their people associated with a show where Ric Flair might have a heart attack and die on air. And of course, there is all the Darkside of the ring stuff

Sounds like this wasn’t Flair going “I have one last great match left in me and I’m going to get it out even if I die in that ring” but more “huh that dark side thing is getting kinda popular, I better get something else in these headlines”

He'll be back when he runs out of money again.

Ric had a legit heart attack . He thought he was dehydrated at the time . He later from his cardiologist that he had a heart attack during the match .

That match was extremely sad to watch. But it made me feel good to see Ric smiling and happy like that one last time even tho I was honestly worried he was going to die. Glad it’s over. Glad he’s okay.

Solid 3 star match. Hopefully we see Flair have one more so we can see him without the nagging injury.

Did you even listen? What part of "he had a foot injury" needs to be translated for you? He was injured,drunk, and on painkillers. Which, of course, is TOTALLY what a septuagenarian with alcoholic cardiomyopathy, that's bad enough to require a pacemaker, who nearly died of kidney failure not that long ago should be. While taking a vertical suplex, slamming him on his back so those damaged kidneys and whatever part of his colon they didn't cut out, get really good workout! Totally _normal_ stuff.

The match was embarrassing and extremely depressing.

Ray Fenix and the luchadors was the best match of the night, period.

To be fair, the WWE dodged a bullet not lending any of their wrestlers for this show. I'm sure they saw the main event and were appalled by what they saw.

I hope Ric Flair fights Me. McMahon at Ric Flair’s Last Match 2 next year. By then Vince’s 90 day noncompete will be up. Also I hope they have it on Saturday or Friday so I can go watch in person.

I think the consensus here is that when Ric had that Wrestlemania match against Shawn...that legitimately should have been his last one. I saw a senior citizen in that ring who should have been sitting with his fellow WWE Hall of Famers in the front row. I enjoyed Ric as much as anyone during his NWA/WCW & WWF/WWE in ring career but that match should never have happened.

It needs to be it. But I'm glad he got to go out on his own terms.

No one ,mentions how dead the crowd was the entire show until the main. The real star power were all the guests.

Bryan was on the show? Where?

Nobody wanted this to happen, other than those looking to make money off it. It was a bad idea. He had a phenomenal last match versus Shawn Micheals at Wrestlemania, then a great send off on Raw, but he threw it all away trying to emulate The Wrestler movie. He apparently thought that was aspirational rather than tragic.

Can’t have it both ways tho… if your charging people an arm n a leg to watch this, it better be worth it, if not, don’t even bother. If you say he’s 73 years old, your right.. retire then and enjoy what’s left of your life.
