There were some troubling reports that broke this past weekend that said Ric Flair was admitted to the intensive care unit for some heart-related issues. It was originally announced by his management team that he was in the hospital for some ‘routine monitoring’ and for fans not to panic.

24 hours later, the tone from Flair’s management team changed drastically. They were now asking for prayers and positive energy for Flair, who was dealing with some “tough medical issues”.
A report from Mike Johnson of PWInsider suggested that based on Flair’s book: ‘To Be The Man’, he suffers from Alcoholic cardiomyopathy.
