As of this writing, Ric Flair remains in critical condition in Atlanta and he is on kidney dialysis. Dave Meltzer noted that Monday’s colon surgery was considered a success and one of the keys is to get his kidneys back functioning. He also said that the surgery was to “remove a blockage that was the catalyst for a number of different health issues that followed including kidney failure.”
The reaction continues to pour in from wrestlers, celebrities, and fans and it has been amazing to see over the last couple of days. You can add Hulk Hogan to the list of names wishing him well.
He wrote the following on Twitter:
Ric Flair only prayers,love and positive thoughts,now it's time to kick out because you can and you will always be "The Man" my brother. HH
