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.
