I fully admit that sometimes I make jokes about Ric being out of control and refusing to give up his lifestyle and whatnot, and then I remember, "Oh, poo poo. Reid," and then I think, well, holy poo poo, how else does a raging addict know how to cope ... and then I think to myself, "God drat, someone surely said something, somewhere."

From basically every source that addressed the subject of his drinking over the last decade, the problem never seemed like "nobody saying anything" so much as "he didn't listen"

Your mother!

TMZ is saying, with WWE corroboration, that Flair is out of emergency surgery, out of critical condition but still in serious condition.

As someone who has been there, if you get upgraded to serious, it's a good sign but you're going to have nurses on you 24 / 7 for a few days.

Posted on THE BOARD:

He's out of surgery.

It's good that he's out of surgery.

It's still real bad. I had it just told to me in some detail, not exactly identical, but very similar to what happened to my dad. However, his kidneys are functioning which is the main difference and no cancer issues.

What's wrong with Meltzer posting this on THE BOARD instead of twitter where he's currently talking about Omega/Okada and some match that happened in 1967?

Yeah because HHH totally won the monday night wars, was a main eventer in the attitude era and NXT is a success

Also gently caress HBK and that other idiot Hunter badmouthing Flair. The guy did it all and he doesnt deserve two rate imitators judging him. They should have asked Arn, Steamboat, Luger, Sting and not those clowns

Do people not like Dave Meltzer? I used to see him as sort of te unofficial voice of the IWC, hating all the "entertainers" and loving only the guys who could work the most technical of matches.

But after reading Alvarez's book, I found myself listening to a lot of stuff he and Meltzer said. I also listened to this great episode o Jericho's show where he and Meltzer talked about Benoit's life.

(Speaking of Benoit, I dunno if anyone else heard it, but Honky Tonk Man is apparently cool with Benoit murdering his wife, but the kid was too far. Shoots generally make me like the wrestler but not so here)

I mean this in all seriousness, I cannot fathom Ric Flair dying at 68. He'd just be too irate about the missed opportunity.

Yet if Rovert or someone else posted Rovert's tweet of a screencap of Dave's post shortly after Dave made it, you'd be right here complaining about Rovert instead

Ric Flair is dead, and this is Bill Goldberg's beautiful widow typing this message. please do not ban this account, as he bequeathed it in his will to his beautiful daughter, who will now take on the mantle of Bill Goldberg. before my husband died, he told me his biggest regret was not buying everything on my daughter's amazon.com wishlist. in my husband's, and ric flair's memory, please buy everything on my daughter's amazon.com wishlist. pm her and she will send you links of things to buy for her, in this tragic time of mourning.

my husband Bill Goldberg would talk about the Rowdy Ringsports and all of his friends here all the time, he loved all of you, and I know you all loved him very much. you were the only friends he ever had, even i did not care for him very much. i only loved him for his money, and for the amazing sex. please be kind to my daughter as she begins her posting adventure here with all of you. thank you for loving Pupkin (my husband's real name).

If only there was some way you could find out independent of Dave Meltzer, who is Ric Flair's doctor. Like googling "ric flair" or something. I don't know, that probably can't be done. It's a shame you couldn't find out and still don't know Ric Flair's condition. Hope you make it through these trying times.
