RIC FLAIR HOSPITALIZED
By Paul Jordan on 2017-08-13 02:32:00
Pro Wrestling Sheet is reporting that WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair was admitted to the ICU for heart-related issues by his family. The initial cause for concern isn't exactly clear. The family states that they're doing it for "routine monitoring".

A representative for Flair posted the following on social media:

“Yes, Ric is checked into a hospital for some routine monitoring. No, there is no reason to panic.”

Adding, “Yes, we’d like to thank his fiancé & the incredible hospital staff who are providing the best care. No, we cannot answer any personal questions. Yes, Ric would want you to go out and have a great weekend … Nature Boy style!”

Flair's agent........................she'd initially said it was no big deal

Charlotte was also pulled from the latest SD house show and replaced with Liv Morgan

uh oh.......... :(

Bad News Gertner 08-14-2017 09:50 AM

Yeah, latest word that I heard it was worse than originally reported.

#BROKEN Hasney 08-14-2017 09:52 AM

Charlotte was pulled because she went to China to promote the Network. She was still there as of yesterday.

Hope Flair makes a speedy recovery!

Evil Vito 08-14-2017 11:39 AM

Michael Hayes just tweeted that he saw Flair yesterday and that he "can assure he needs everyone's prayers and positive vibes".

fuuuuuuuuck

Bad News Gertner 08-14-2017 11:47 AM

In honor of Flair, here's the greatest Flair performance ever.

I know he's probably an asshole in real life and brought most of his troubles on himself, but I adore Ric Flair. I mean...the ICU needs to be Fair to Flair. Stretcher riding, Ambulance romancin', Nurse's skirt grabbin, son of a gun

Wooooooooooo

Bad News Gertner 08-14-2017 12:01 PM

Unconfirmed rumours of Flair being put into a medically induced coma this morning

Evil Vito 08-14-2017 12:42 PM

Some poor guy in Stamford has probably been tasked with urgently putting together a video package in case the worst case scenario happens before Raw.

Destor 08-14-2017 12:47 PM

This crushes my soul

Ol Dirty Dastard 08-14-2017 01:06 PM

Shit

Lock Jaw 08-14-2017 01:07 PM

I will be devastated when Flair passes..... hopefully it is later rather than sooner......

SNLfunnyguy 08-14-2017 01:28 PM

Hoping he pulls through whatever this is. The wrestling world wouldn't be the same without Ric.

Destor 08-14-2017 01:35 PM

Im really not ok with this

Emperor Smeat 08-14-2017 01:47 PM

Hope he gets better soon.

#1-norm-fan 08-14-2017 01:55 PM

I've been binge-watching mid/late 80's NWA World Championship Wrestling episodes every night over the past week. I blame myself.

Shisen Kopf 08-14-2017 02:20 PM

Hope he doesn't die. I saw his last ever WWE match at Rasslemania 24, when Shawn H. Christ retired him. Also saw him rassle the Undertaker at Rasslemania 18. Come on Ric, don't die, have Arn run in or something!

Vastardikai 08-14-2017 02:23 PM

Beg off on the grim reaper and then thumb him in the eye socket.

Emperor Smeat 08-14-2017 02:42 PM

According to TMZ Sports, Flair is having surgery to fix his heart related problems. Had to be put into a medically induced coma as part of the prep process for it.

While PWInsider isn't claiming this to be the exact cause, Flair did reveal in his autobiography he suffers from Alcoholic cardiomyopathy.

What we do know, based on what was written in Flair's own autobiography To Be The Man, the former NWA and WWF champion suffers from Alcoholic cardiomyopathy, a condition caused by excessive, prolounged alcohol abuse that can lead to heart failure. When one suffers from that condition, the toxic effects of alcohol on the heart's muscle leads to a situation where the organ is unable to pump blood efficiently.

Praise God for Smeat.

Black Widow 08-14-2017 04:26 PM

Someone get some strippers in the room so he snaps out of it.

Emperor Smeat 08-14-2017 04:49 PM

According to the Observer, Flair's surgery finished up recently and is resting but still in an "extremely serious" condition.

Still no news on the details of his illness nor what caused his health to decline since yesterday.

DAMN iNATOR 08-14-2017 07:04 PM

Damn...keeping him in my thoughts and prayers.

slik 08-14-2017 07:10 PM

Ric Flair defeated death with a handful of trunks. Flair Lives!

Woooooooo!

Ezra 08-14-2017 07:13 PM

This is no different then the time sting rolled over when flair had him in the figure four. Flair will not tap and show death he is the dirtiest player in the game.

Emperor Smeat 08-14-2017 09:01 PM

According to Flair's rep, the surgery wasn't for his heart but for something else.

Epico or Primo?

Carlito

Evil Vito 08-14-2017 11:58 PM

I have a feeling this is gonna be like the night of Lawler's heart attack for me where even though the last update I read before bed sounds positive, I'm gonna feel compelled to take a deep breath before I log onto the internet in the morning.

RP 08-15-2017 12:00 AM

When the nurses go in the room in the morning and try to take his pulse with the finger clamp, it will be clamped on the end of his dick

Schlomey 08-15-2017 08:51 AM

wonder if his butt hole fell out or something.

Schlomey 08-15-2017 08:51 AM

glad he isn't dead. every time I scrolled past an article with his picture i was worried it would say "dead".
