Ric Flair’s heart surgery postponed

Ric Flair is still hospitalized in a local hospital in Atlanta, Georgia. He was scheduled to undergo heart surgery today but that has been postponed until Monday.

Will Nunley from FOX 5 Atlanta reports that Flair is under the care of doctors and they are working to address complications before surgery.

TMZ reported on Thursday that Flair was rushed to the hospital. It was later reported that the upcoming heart surgery is considered serious. Flair has dealt with heart issues for many years related to decades of hard partying while on the road.

Flair is still listed for Starrcast II for next weekend during AEW Double Or Nothing weekend but with the heart surgery coming up, it’s questionable whether doctors would want him to travel so soon.

We send our best to the Nature Boy for a speedy and full recovery after surgery on Monday.
