Ric Flair Confirms In-Ring Return On July 31

Ric Flair is wrestling again.

Rumors about Ric Flair returning to the ring have surfaced over the past week, but now Flair himself confirmed that he will be stepping back into the ring this summer.

On Monday, Flair responded to a report from ESPN’s Marc Raimondi and wrote the following, confirming he’ll walk the aisle in Nashville on July 31:

The Rumors Are True! I’m Going To Walk That Aisle, Style And Profile, One Last Time! July 31st! Nashville, Tennessee! Jim Crockett Promotions!

I Will Prove Once Again, That To Be The Man, You’ve Got To Beat The Man!

Now We Go To School!

WOOOOO!

Flair has been posting videos of himself training with Jay Lethal in the past few weeks, and F4WOnline.com’s Dave Meltzer recently reported that this was in preparation for Flair’s return to the ring. Meltzer later reported that there was a rumor that Flair would work a tag match with FTR against The Rock ‘n’ Roll Express and a partner, but no other details about the match have been confirmed by Flair’s camp.

Flair’s last official match was a loss to Sting on the September 15, 2011 episode of IMPACT Wrestling.
