Ric Flair’s final match is being moved to a significantly larger venue after a quick sellout, sources confirmed with ESPN. The card, which takes place July 31 to cap the Starrcast convention, will now be held at the Nashville Municipal Auditorium after originally being scheduled for the smaller Tennessee Fairgrounds Sports Arena. The new venue holds nearly 10,000 people, while the fairgrounds venue holds a bit more than 3,000. Flair, 73, is one of the biggest names in pro-wrestling history.
