All Elite Wrestling will honor the memory of the late football and wrestling icon Steve “Mongo” McMichael on an upcoming episode of AEW Collision. The special tribute segment is expected to feature an appearance by WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair.
McMichael, who passed away after a courageous battle with ALS, was a beloved figure in both the NFL, as a Super Bowl champion with the Chicago Bears, and in professional wrestling, primarily with WCW. He was notably a member of the legendary Four Horsemen faction alongside Flair.
The tribute on AEW Collision will celebrate Mongo’s impactful career and contributions to sports and entertainment. Ric Flair’s presence will add a poignant touch, given his close friendship and on-screen association with McMichael during their WCW days. (If the F4W article includes a quote from Tony Khan or Ric Flair about the tribute, it would be inserted here.)
This segment aims to pay respects to McMichael’s enduring legacy. It offers fans a chance to remember “Mongo” and his significant impact on both the gridiron and the squared circle, with one of his closest compatriots, “The Nature Boy,” there to lead the honors.
