Ric Flair Issues First Statement Following Heart Surgery

Ric Flair took to Instagram earlier today to make his first public statement after he underwent heart surgery on Monday (May 20).

The caption on his photo read: “”The Naitch Is Home!!! Thank You To All The Incredible Staff And Doctors At Gwinnett Medical Center Once Again! I Am So Thankful For All My Family, Friends, And Fans For All The Love. At This Time In My Life, I Never Take It For Granted. I Will Be Back Up And WOOOOOing In No Time!”

As previously reported, Flair will now miss his scheduled appearance at Starrcast 2 following complications which delayed the surgery. His doctors are not allowing him to travel for this weekend’s events.

Flair’s wife Wendy confirmed late on Monday that the surgery had been a success, and that doctors were confident that the 16-time world champion would make a full recovery.

He is scheduled to make his first appearance following his surgery on Friday, May 31 for SCWPro at their “To Be The Man” event in East Moline, Illinois.
