Flair, 73, is wrestling in what is being billed as the final match of his legendary career on Sunday at Nashville Municipal Auditorium, tagging with his son-in-law Andrade El Idolo against WWE Hall of Famer (and Hendersonville native) Jeff Jarrett and Flair's training partner Jay Lethal.
Flair told media after practice that his favorite NFL player is Titans running back Derrick Henry.
"I hated him at Alabama," Flair said, "but I love him here."
