ATLANTA, GA. (THECOUNT) — Wrestling legend Ric Flair was rushed to a hospital Thursday morning after suffering a medical emergency, TMZ is reporting.
Flair, 70, was in the Atlanta area when something went wrong. The WWE icon was initially taken to the emergency room to be treated.
The specifics are unclear at this point but sources say the situation is “very serious.”
Flair had a previous medical scare back in 2017. He was placed in a medically induced coma for 11 days after his intestine ruptured. Flair was in critical condition and on the verge of dying.
But “The Nature Boy” pulled through — and a year later, he married his longtime girlfriend Wendy Barlow … who stuck by his side throughout the entire medical scare and subsequent recovery.
Ric had been doing great recently — and had a massive star-studded bash for his 70th birthday back in February … with a guest list that included Todd Gurley, Charles Barkley, Jeff Hardy, Triple H, Evander Holyfield and Dennis Rodman.
