Bruce Prichard Says Shawn Michaels vs. Ric Flair Almost Main Evented WrestleMania 24

On the latest episode of the “Something to Wrestle with Bruce Prichard” podcast, the focus of discussion was WrestleMania 24.

The focal point of the night was Shawn Michaels vs. Ric Flair, with the Nature Boy’s career on the line, and Prichard revealed that there were discussions about their match main eventing the show, before sharing why WWE did not go ahead with the plan. He noted,

“It was (talks of Shawn Michaels & Ric Flair main eventing WrestleMania 24) but it was also the realization of, also kind of a bummer. So you don’t wanna leave people with a bummer. I think if you would have left it to the end, the expectations would have been so high that Ric was going to win and continue on that by doing that finish, that really would have left people on — not the right kind of bummer, that wouldn’t have been heat. It’s a good story. This was a great story with Ric and it needed to be ended earlier.”
