Diamond Dallas Page was part of Ric Flair's Last Match, but Ric Flair had bigger plans for him.
Page appeared at the event to deliver a diamond cutter to Matt Cardona, but according to DDP, Flair wanted him to take part in the main event.
"Ric actually called me and asked me if I would be in the match with him, do a six-man. At first he said, 'D, how old are you?' '66.' 'I've seen you, you're in great shape. I'd really love to have you be in this match.' I said, 'Ric, I can't do it. I feel so good, I can't take a chance on hurting myself.' He goes, 'I feel great!' 'You're not from this planet.' That's when he talked me into doing the roast and I said I would only do it for him. I'm not a roast guy," Page said while speaking to Renee Paquette on The Sessions.
Flair ended up teaming with Andrade El Idolo against Jay Lethal & Jeff Jarrett.
DDP said in the interview that he and Ric used to have heat as they both said things during their time in WCW, but they eventually squashed it and Flair was let him use his jet during WrestleMania 2017 weekend when DDP was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.
