First he was hospitalized for something routine, now they need prayers.

He's put a hell of a lot of strain in his body all those years.

Not looking good right now. Let's hope he can pull through.

As I have stated in the past, I no longer watch wrestling, but I did watch a lot of Ric Flair matches as a youth.

Reports say he's out of surgery but far from out of the woods. C'mon, Naitch.

Definitely sending thoughts, prayers, & WOOOOOs Ric's way. The Nature Boy has a lot of people cheering him on right now.

According to Mean Gene Okerlund's Twitter account, his surgery was colon-related. But at least, despite Naitch being still in very serious condition, the outlook seems a bit more positive than it was this morning. Will keep sending positive vibes to the Flair family.

Hopefully Ric is able to pull through. He's still too young.

Well, kidney failure is no small thing. That's the reason behind the colon surgery. Still hoping that things will get better in the next few days.

Flair's fiancee made a post, saying that the Nature Boy is having "multiple organ problems," but that it had nothing to do with his colon.

Yeah, Dave Meltzer also updated Flair's status, corroborating Wendy's statement about Ric. He said that Flair received an external pacemaker and his heart is getting stronger so that's great news. The major issue seems to be the kidneys & an infection but they have to wait for the kidneys to get better before treating the infection, if I understood correctly.
