"I had one of my best matches of my career here with Ricky Steamboat," the 73-year-old said afterward, via ESPN. "All my family is here. We made jokes about me being married five times. All the kids are here. One wife, but all my granddaughters. My friends are here. I swear to God, guys. If I didn't have enough pressure on me tonight, f---ing Kid Rock walked into the locker room tonight."

He was also greeted by Bret Hart, Mick Foley and The Undertaker. All three WWE Hall of Famers were sitting ringside.
Jarrett, a standout in the pro wrestling industry and WWE Hall of Famer in his own right, was also emotional after the match.
"It's his last one. If anything goes wrong, it's on me. It's on others. I'm so damn happy for Ric, I don't know what to say. ... As a spectator, y'all watched it and went home tonight," Jarrett said. "When you're participating, it's a whole other level of pressure that I've never been under."
