However, the reason Flair gave had nothing to do with ‘Taker’s age or injuries, it was because of how well The Deadman is enjoying his life with his wife and daughters.
“I think he’s really done. I don’t think Mark makes decisions on the spur of the moment. He doesn’t need the money obviously. He’s been so successful. I think he is so wrapped up with Michelle and the kids and his family. He’s in a perfect scenario for what he wants to do.” [h/t: WrestlingNews]

Flair also noted the star power of wrestlers like Steve Austin and The Undertaker and admitted that when these guys promote something, people pay money to watch it. Flair admitted that ‘Taker doing a radio show is currently a bigger deal than Seth Rollins doing a radio show.
“When they’re [WWE] sending Steve Austin to Dallas and The Undertaker to Dallas to promote WrestleMania, trust me, everybody else on the roster is having a hard time keeping up with them. It’s not because they’re on the road and they’re busy,” he said.
