Ric Flair Has Clawed His Way Out Of Critical Condition And Is Now On The Road To Recovery

In mid-August, the WWE world was jolted by the announcement of Ric Flair falling into a medically-induced coma before undergoing emergency surgery for “multiple organ problems.” The 68-year-old was tipped off that something was wrong after suffering from severe abdominal pains.

Flair’s fiancée, Wendy Barlow, the painted a grim picture of The Nature Boy’s condition after claiming the whole situation was a “nightmare” and encouraged his fans to pray for him. Although the specific ailment has never been publicly addressed, reports indicate that the WWE legend had a piece of his colon surgically removed due to an intestinal blockage.

But a little constipation ain’t going to tie down this monster.

On Monday night, Flair’s fiancée took to Facebook to reveal that Flair had fought out the surgery and clawed his way out of critical condition in what she deems a “miracle.”

Flair recently admitted that he has struggled with alcoholism, and his drinking habits are believed to have contributed to the health issues, reports Larry Brown Sports. Hopefully this scare will give Nature Boy the wakeup call he needs to get right. The world is a better place with him in it.

Matt’s love of writing was born during a sixth grade assembly when it was announced that his essay titled “Why Drugs Are Bad” had taken first prize in D.A.R.E.’s grade-wide contest. The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
