Isn't he too old for the wrestling malarkey???
WWE commentator Jim Ross thinks wrestling legend Ric Flair could end up in rival firm TNA alongside Hulk Hogan.
Flair supposedly retired from the ring in March 2008 at WrestleMania 24 - but returned last week to main event against Hogan on the Hulkamania tour of Australia.
Now JR reckons the Nature Boy may be the next big name signing for TNA, who already have the likes Kurt Angle, Mick Foley, Bobby Lashley, Taz and Kevin Nash working for them.
Sting, arguably Flair's most famous career rival, is also under contract to Dixie Carter's group, but hasn't been seen since losing to AJ Styles at Bound For Glory.
Jim commented: "Will Ric Flair ever go to TNA?
"That's a Naitch question but the chances of Flair doing some work with TNA especially now that Hulk is headed there is much more likely than had Hulk not joined TNA in my opinion."
Ross did however rule out another WWE legend, and his good friend, Steve Austin crossing over.
Writing on his blog, JR added: "That's a question for Steve but my educated guess would be no.
"I don't think Steve has any intention of ever wrestling again as he focuses on his movie career which is both time consuming and challenging for the 'new guy'.
"Steve is and always will, be a fan of the wrestling business but he's building a body of work in the movie business and has been involved in, I think, three or four productions this year alone which is a helluva, challenging schedule."Read more:
