2 time WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair was hospitalized on Saturday and placed in Intensive Care for 'routine heart monitoring' but is still in hospital as of Monday, with the situation seemingly getting worse. Latest (unconfirmed) reports are he is in a medically induced coma. His management team and Michael Hayes have both tweeted out asking for thoughts and prayers.

I was hesitant to post this but ultimately felt it was too serious a story not to. Legit one of the greatest ever and I hope he makes a full recovery. Keep fighting Ric.

UPDATE

Its now confirmed Ric is in a medically induced coma and is awaiting surgery, the safe bet is likely complications from Alcoholic Myopathy.

UPDATE 2

Ric has had a successful surgery and is resting. His management team says it wasnt related to his heart but he still isnt out of the woods yet.
