In a recent press conference for his last match, Ric Flair stated how his son-in-law Conrad Thompson asked him about his interest in one last match. He added that he at once agreed to it and went ahead with training and preparation.

"We've been friends for, I wanna say eight years now nine years," said Flair. "I was aware of the Starrcast opportunity that he's done every year, which has been remarkable and been received so well. But I've never had a chance to be part of it and now when he called me and said 'What do you think about wrestling one more match', I had to think, well you know, 'Yeah'. It took me that long to say 'Yeah', I didn't have to think."
