Legend says Ric Flair s last match was the greatest event ever
Legend says Ric Flair's last match was the greatest event ever Two-time WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair has received a glowing review from one of the most legendary wrestling promoters of the last four decades. Flair teamed up with his son-in-law Andrade El Idolo to defeat Jay Lethal and Jeff Jarrett in his final in-ring encounter. Jerry Jarrett, Jeff’s father, thought the event was the best spectacle he has ever seen in wrestling. Speaking to Sportskeeda Wrestling Senior Editor in early August, Jarrett made it clear that he is enjoying life at the age of 79. He also confirmed that he keeps up to date with the modern-day wrestling product: “I’m spending a lot of porch time. Yes, I have one [a rocking chair], kind of a glider, lounge,” Jarrett said. “Absolutely [still watches wrestling], this past weekend I witnessed the greatest wrestling event of my entire career.” [0:52-1:24] Jarrett watched SummerSlam 2022 on July 30 before attending Ric Flair’s tag team match on July 31. While the wrestling legend enjoyed both shows, he was particularly impressed with the production of Flair’s last match. “It [SummerSlam] was an exciting event,” Jarrett continued. “It [Brock Lesnar tractor segment] wasn’t my thing! But the next night, [Ric Flair’s] final match. I have never witnessed an event that the people stood up on the opening match and did not sit down through the main event. I thought, ‘How in the world will they follow this?’ They not only followed it, but it was emotional, it was dramatic, and it was just very, very special.” [2:33-3:25] Watch the video above to hear more from Jarrett about several wrestling topics, including Vince McMahon’s .
