Update On The Health of Ric Flair
Melinda Morris Zanoni, CEO of Legacy Talent, LLC and a rep for 2-time WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair, has updated Flair’s condition; Flair, age 68, was initially hospitalized Saturday night for “routine monitoring,” according to the rep. However, another tweet was posted by Zanoni at 12:11am ET today (Monday), and it appears Flair is dealing with more than just “routine monitoring.” The first tweet below is from 9:39pm ET Saturday; the second tweet is from shortly after midnight ET Sunday night/Monday morning, citing that Ric Flair is “dealing with some tough medical issues.”
