Two legendary professional wrestling icons and WWE Hall of Famers will be seen live on “AEW Dynamite.” During Saturday’s episode of “Collision,” play-by-play commentator Tony Schiavone announced that “The Nature Boy” Ric Flair and Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat will be in attendance for the “Blood & Guts” episode of “Dynamite.”
The location of “Dynamite” is significant, especially with the presence of Flair and Steamboat. AEW will return to Greensboro, a city both men are familiar with thanks to their legendary runs under Jim Crockett Promotions.
Flair’s most recent appearance on AEW TV was in Greensboro for Sting’s retirement match in 2024. Sting and Darby Allin defeated The Young Bucks to end “AEW Revolution.” Steamboat also made a cameo in the match.
