Ric: "It should be"
Also Ric: "I'm gonna come out of retirement again."

[NCO]

He should’ve left that as his last match

[templeos]

Crazy that Shawn called that on the fly, ric and Shawn two goats 🐐

I've watched that match dozens of times, and actually again just 10 minutes ago. And yes, it brings a tear to my eye every single time. Imho, one of the best, most emotion filled WrestleMania matches of all time!

Con: Flair didn’t leave after his match against HBK.

Pro: We got that ludicrous and crazy segment with Jay Lethal afterwards.

You lose some, you gain some.

Flair vs Michaels at WrestleMania 24 is the only match that made me cry as a fan. They really made me believe at that time that it would be Ric Flair's last match ever. I was only 17 years old at the time, but I felt so stupid afterwards when he continued wrestling.

[ImmortalMathias]

I remember my amazement as I watched that match.
It was a masterpiece.

[slabbyfatback]

Even in his interviews he goes the extra mile to make his opponents look good!! U could see Flair telling Michaels what to do several times in that match, guiding him. That's why they all love him, he always tries to make them look better than himself. The GOAT!

[vegasviking]

At the end of the interview, Chris should've looked over and said "Hey Rick..." and given him the "let's speed it up" hand signal 😂

[TheRoyalHour]

Shawn Michaels is the best there ever was. Looking back at that match, Flair could still go. But, it would have been better if that was his actual retirement match. Everything that happened after is a negative contribution to his legacy

[MrHarris]

When Lillian Garcia announced Ric Flair out to the ring for that match, I felt it in my soul. She put everything she had into that announcement.

[Disciple_sXe]

That last moment of the match was the best ever! It’ll never be topped.

[tthomaselli]

As far as I'm concerned, Ric Flair's match with Shawn Michaels from 'WWE WrestleMania 24' is technically considered to be Ric Flair's final match--in both pro wrestling & WWE, respectively.

What all he did in his 2½-year stint with TNA, however as far as in-ring work is another story, though...

[kc]

I love Ric.

Shawn, however, is the GOAT in my eyes. He literally had the Match of the Year till the day he officially retired. The man had an unfair God given advantage in the ring. The greatest to ever lace up a pair of boots.

[EliDrake]

To everyone sayin he should have just quit, if ric left it at that we wouldn’t have the jay lethal segment.

[phillipjfry]

that was a 5 star match no question. i love both superstars man, but i hate how all good things come to an end

[cloudydaze]

That’s why HBK still orchestrates matches today, his knowledge of the business was praised by Vince and Triple H both saying they learned from him

[MrTrueCaller]

Unbelievable fun fact : Ric Flair is the last Evolution member to compete in a wrestling match .

[ModernDayRenaissanceMan]

Flair comes back now in AEW & tags with Sting & Darby as the Sting, Fling, & Wing express.

[iijasonbrody]

This match was great, it's a shame that ric joined TNA after a couple of years where he was sloppy and embarrassing to watch...
