Ricky Steamboat will return to wrestling on Sunday.
Steamboat is the centerpiece of Big Time Wrestling’s Return of The Dragon show, which airs live on FITE. Only three months before turning 70, he is teaming with FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) against Jay Lethal, Brock Anderson and a mystery opponent.
The match, which takes place at the Dorton Arena in Raleigh, marks Steamboat’s first in a dozen years.
“I think I can still entertain the crowd,” says Steamboat. “I’m wrestling with some great workers and I’m teaming with FTR, who are phenomenal. I keep telling myself, ‘Don’t be stupid, Steamboat.
