The Nature Boy is one of the biggest names in the wrestling business. He is a 16-time WWE champion and broke many records in the business during his magnificent career.
Ric Flair joined AEW in October 2023, purportedly as a gift to Sting ahead of his retirement at AEW Revolution. He played a major role in the storyline and also in the match. His last appearance in the promotion took place at Revolution pay-per-view, where he interfered to save Sting in his final match.

Tejas has been an AEW writer at Sportskeeda Wrestling since 2021. Possessing a degree in Food Processing Technology, it was his brother who introduced him to Sportskeeda, and he has never looked back since.
Tejas’ writing style is analytical and descriptive style, mostly sticking to statistics. He believes in thoroughly checking all statistics and information before using them in his articles to ensure his readers get nothing but the best and most accurate stories. He also does not indulge much in speculation in his content.
His all-time favorite wrestler is Roman Reigns for his journey from being one of the most unlikable babyfaces at the start of his career to one of the greatest modern WWE superstars. If Tejas ever got the chance to go back to the Attitude Era and manage a superstar, it would choose high-flying, risk-taking diminutive entertainer Spike Dudley. Tejas would assure him that he would be involved in long-term storylines, something that he wasn’t part of during his time.
In his free time, Tejas enjoys singing and learning new things.
