It's been quite a while since Flair was a part of NWA, but after being recently granted his released by WWE, he is returning to the promotion where he became a household name. Now, the video and the post don't mention him wrestling, just that he is going to appear at NWA 73, and they also don't state what his role will be in the promotion.
Regardless of what he does or if this is just a one-time appearance, it's still worth celebrating, and is yet another stop on Flair's post-WWE tour. He was most recently sighted. atAAA TripleMania XXIX, where he accompanied Andrade el Idolo to the ring for his match against Kenny Omega for the Mega Championship.
