Ric Flair appeared on WWE The Bump with an enormous surprise for the fans. WWE had revealed earlier that Flair will announce the next inductee into the Hall of Fame 2023. As Rey Mysterio is the first inductee, ‘The Nature Boy’ revealed the second legend taking his rightful place in the prestigious Hall of Fame this year.

Naitch announced the Japanese legend The Great Muta will be the second inductee into the WWE Hall of Fame this year. This a shocking and joyous moment not only for the WWE universe but the entire wrestling world.

Nevertheless, this is a huge honor for Muta to say felicitate his career with the WWE Hall of Fame induction. The fans went berserk after this announcement.
