Ric Flair just joked about wrestling AWOL WWE star Sasha Banks and putting the match opposite next year's WrestleMania supercard.

The 'Nature Boy' was only having a laugh, but he refuses to rule out pulling on the boots again for yet another match. Remember, Flair wrestled what was supposedly his "final match" during this past July's Starrcade festivities.

Ric told TMZ Sports that his current attitude is "never say never" when it comes to working matches again. He's not 100% sure if that tag bout with Andrade El Idolo vs. Jeff Jarrett and Jay Lethal will definitely be his last one; that kinda sh*ts all over the branding for the bout, but that wouldn't be a first for Flair.

The Sasha joke will get some people talking on social media though.

Banks is currently on the WWE sidelines after walking out on the promotion in May. She and then-fellow Women's Tag-Team Champ Naomi plonked their belts onto John Laurinaitis' desk before the 16 May Raw and told him they were going home.

Arguably the last thing pro wrestling needs is Ric vs. Sasha running opposite 'Mania. Imagine.
