Magnum TA Comments On Why Ric Flair Struggled With His Retirement From Wrestling

Professional wrestling legend Magnum TA appeared on an episode of the โ€œSnake Pitโ€ podcast, where he spoke about a variety of topics such as why two-time WWE Hall of Famer “The Nature Boy” Ric Flair struggled with his retirement from wrestling as well as how he understands what Flair feels.

He said, โ€œItโ€™s a sacrificial business, to begin with. You give up a lot of things people take for granted, things they can do with their time, spend time with their families. You end up โ€ฆ youโ€™re married to the business.โ€

โ€œIt was a situation where you grew to despise the travel but you enjoy the performance part of it so much.โ€ โ€œAnd enjoy that time in the ring and be able to be rewarded by the fans that are reciprocating, enjoying what you did, it was almost like a euphoric drug kinda thing.โ€ โ€œNot only is it a potent drug, but itโ€™s reportedly rare.โ€

โ€œThereโ€™s nothing Iโ€™ve ever been able to do in my life thatโ€™s replicated what that experience is like.โ€ โ€œSo I know why Flair and these guys that were able to perform way past their physical prime because they couldnโ€™t hang it up, they didnโ€™t know what else to do. There was nothing to replace that with.โ€
