Originally published at The Rock and Dolph Ziggler are among the big names to appear at The Roast of Ric Flair
Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and Dolph Ziggler sent in unannounced video messages that aired at The Roast of Ric Flair last night.
The show was part of the opening night of Starrcast V, which is largely built around Flair, including his ‘Last Match’, which takes place on Sunday.
In his message, The Rock spoke about meeting Flair as a child and being remembered by the Nature Boy years later when they met again at an NWA convention.
