The Nature Boy Ric Flair is perhaps one of the greatest WWE legends of all time. Flair’s in-ring talent and larger-than-life personality made marquee attraction for almost every promotion he was part of. He has continued to make sporadic appearances for the company on numerous occasions. Ric Flair is now set to comeback to WWE television programming at one of the upcoming major shows.

Ric Flair currently holds the record of being a 16-time World Champion. Today, Flair’s legacy is carried forward in the WWE by his daughter, Charlotte Flair who has risen in the company as one of the biggest draws in the modern era, just like her dad. The Nature Boy is now set to make his long-awaited return to the WWE.

The 16-time World Champion has been invited by the WWE to attend their special show, RAW XXX scheduled to take place one week before the 2023 Royal Rumble event, currently stated to be the most successful edition of the pay-per-view. Ric Flair announced the news of his return, calling it an honour to be a part of the show. Flair spoke about this on the latest episode of his “To Be The Man,” podcast.

“I have been invited and it’s a fing big deal,” Flair said. “Why? Because it’s Raw and it’s a big fing deal. I’m honored, hell yeah, are you kidding me? 30 years, how about that? Remember [WCW Monday Nitro] was just going to destroy Raw? I can’t even spell Nitro anymore, can you? We’re putting you out of business Vince!’ Good lord. For me, it’ll be getting in there Sunday night, looking for [Steve] Austin, Undertaker, anybody in site looking for a cool beverage, I’ll be buying.”
