Ric Flair surprised everyone a few days ago by announcing his return to in-ring action at the age of 73. Flair will wrestle his last match on July 31st in Nashville at the Starrcast V event. But it looks like Flair isn’t the only one who is going to come out of retirement this year. WWE legend Hulk Hogan might also make his in-ring return alongside Flair later this year.

Recently, in an interview with Wrestling Shoot Interviews, former WWE star B. Brian Blair hinted at the possibility of Hogan facing Ric Flair later this year. Blair said, “I’m looking forward to seeing Flair and Hogan.”

“I just wish them the very best. I know the fans are the ones that have been really egging it on. They really want to see it. So, it sparked them. All I can say it will be interesting and I just pray that they both come out in one piece,” he added.

After these comments, the interviewer asked Blair whether Hogan will be Flair’s opponent at Starrcast V in Nashville. At first, Brian Blair hesitated. But then he noted that this is a rumor that he read online.
