WWE legend confirms they will never wrestle again - "It’s final"
X-Pac reveals that he is solely focused on improving his health and physical fitness, dismissing any possibility of a return to the ring.
X-Pac, a nine-time champion in WWE, confirmed that he has no plans to return to the ring. The statement was made during coverage of the debut event of WWE RAW on Netflix, amid fan speculation about a potential comeback.
Speculation arose after X-Pac shared photos on his social media showcasing his impressive physical shape. During an interview on the WWE RAW red carpet, X-Pac clarified the situation.
Não. Pra que ficar enrolando? Não. E aí depois eu apareço no Royal Rumble ou algo assim. Mas não. Estou apenas tentando melhorar minha forma física
Ric Flair also confirms retirement from wrestling
Following in the footsteps of X-Pac, Ric Flair took to his social media to confirm that he, too, will not be returning to the ring. The WWE Hall of Famer also took the opportunity to taunt Bronson Reed.
Sem retorno aos ringues! Agradeço pela ótima saúde e condicionamento que me permitiriam fazer isso. Bronson Reed não conseguiria me acertar um Tsunami nem em seu melhor dia
X-Pac’s last match took place on March 31, 2022, when he was defeated by Joey Janela during WrestleMania 38 weekend. In the same year, he expressed interest in participating in the Men’s Royal Rumble Match but was not accepted by WWE.
Regarding Ric Flair, his last match also took place in 2022, when he teamed up with Andrade against Jeff Jarrett and Jay Lethal. There are rumors that Flair is in negotiations with WWE for an appearance at this year’s Royal Rumble.
