Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer reported that Ric Flair underwent colon surgery to remove a blockage that caused a variety of health problems including kidney failure.
The 16-time World champion remains in critical condition at a hospital in Atlanta where he is on kidney dialysis as well. Meltzer adds that the major issue at the moment is to get the kidneys functioning normal again.
While the surgery was successful, it remains to be seen how Flair’s body reacts to the procedure and he will remain hospitalized for the time being. Getting the kidneys working again will be a big win but failing to do so will complicate matters.
Flair was admitted to the hospital by his family with heart-related problems. Initially, his management team at Legacy Talent said that it wasn’t serious and it was just a routine check but the statement couldn’t have been farther from the actual truth.
NXT Women’s champion Asuka became the first individual in NXT to hold a title past the 500-day milestone.
The Empress of Tomorrow has been holding on to the NXT Women’s title ever since she won it from Bayley at NXT Takeover: Dallas during WrestleMania 32 weekend.
By the time NXT Takeover: Brooklyn III comes around this Saturday, Asuka will take over the seventh place in the top 10 longest WWE title reigns in history, surpassing former WWE Women’s champion Rockin’ Robin who stands at 502 consecutive days. There’s no chance of going for sixth place as currently Pedro Morales holds that with 1,027 days.
Asuka takes on Ember Moon at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn III this coming Saturday, a show exclusively on the WWE Network.
After over a dozen of personal photos and videos from Celeste “Kaitlyn” Bonin were released in March and May, someone got a hold of her iCloud account again and distributed nearly two dozen new photos on the Internet.
The last leak was back at the end of May when several videos of the former WWE Diva dressed in a skimpy outfit, and later naked, were put online.
These new leaks which contain full naked photos of Bonin are all cell phone photos and selfies, most of which in front of a mirror in a bedroom and bathroom.
Last Sunday, Bonin met several of her former WWE Superstar friends again when the Smackdown brand rolled into Miami.
Here’s a tip, Celeste…change your iCloud password or else stop taking naked selfies on a device that is connected to the Internet!
Charlotte Flair was the first one of the Flair family to break the silence and thanked the fans for the amazing support they showed over the past few days.
“On behalf of my family and I, we want to THANK everyone for the prayers, texts, calls and support. Our Dad is a FIGHTER and your continued thoughts and prayers MEAN THE WORLD to us,” Charlotte wrote in a post on Instagram.
The former WWE Women’s champion did not provide any update on her father’s condition but said that the family will update everyone once they have more information.
The Nature Boy remains in hospital resting following surgery.
As you might have noticed, Raw ring announcer JoJo was not at the show last night and was told to go home after her sister passed away.
The news was initially reported by JoJo fan site JoJo-Offerman.com, which released a statement saying, “JoJo will not be working tonight’s episode of Raw as she has been sent home from Boston. This is due to her sister, Gigi, passing away.”
In JoJo’s absence, Mike Rome took over her role, his first time announcing on WWE’s flagship show.
The Raw Tag Team titles will be on the line at SummerSlam with Sheamus and Cesaro defending the titles against Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins, who last night on Raw reunited.
Things did not start well for the former Shield members as both Ambrose and Rollins started fighting with each other after the first attempt of the night for The Shield fist bump did not end as expected. With fans chanting “Yes! Yes!” for the reunion, the Raw tag champs interrupted and unloaded on the former WWE champions. Eventually the faces recovered and took the champs out.
With the fans at this point going even more crazy with “Yes! Yes!” chants, Rollins and Ambrose then gave everyone what they were waiting for for weeks: The Shield fist bump to confirm the reunion.
Kurt Angle then made the Raw Tag Team title match for SummerSlam official. This will be the eighth title match on the card which so far has 12 matches.
You can see two-thirds of The Shield reuniting below.
In front of her home town fans, Sasha Banks became the number one contender for the Raw Women’s title after defeating Nia Jax, making Jax tap out to the Banks Statement.
Jax and Banks, who each won a respective qualifying match last week, had their match after Bayley revealed last week that her shoulder injury would prevent her from wrestling Alexa Bliss on the pay-per-view. Bayley originally defeated Banks to advance to SummerSlam.
The last time Bliss and Banks wrestled at Great Balls of Fire, Banks came out victorious via count-out, so Bliss retained the title.
WWE pulled the trigger early on the Cruiserweight title match and held it on Raw last night instead of this Sunday, with Akira Tozawa defeating Neville to become the new champion.
The two were originally set to square off at SummerSlam, although it’s still unclear if the rematch will still happen on the pay-per-view. During Raw, it was described that Titus O’Neil, Tozawa’s manager, went to Kurt Angle to demand a match for Tozawa and Angle accepted.
The switch came to a surprise to many as title changes rarely happen on free TV. Neville had an impressive run as a Cruiserweight champion, holding the title for over six months since winning it at the Royal Rumble from Rich Swann.
Hello everyone! I am @TheMagnumDA with your Raw report. Before we go any further, I just want to send my thoughts out to Ric Flair and his family. I’m pulling for you, Naitch!
We are LIVE from Boston, Massachusetts. The show starts with a Dean Ambrose & Seth Rollins recap video, culminating in Seth walking away from Dean last week. Dean Ambrose comes out live to tell the world that he wants to know where Seth Rollins’ head is at. This brings out Rollins, who says he’s done playing games. Without hesitation, he sticks out his fist in a show of solidarity. Dean says, “You’ve got to be kidding me!” After they go back and forth, Dean sticks HIS fist out and Seth walks away again. This leads to a brawl between the two, and it spills outside the ring!
The WWE Tag Team Champions, Cesaro and Sheamus, come out to ringside. They divide and conquer, as Ambrose is thrown into the crowd while Rollins is dissected in the ring. Ambrose sees the double team, and tries to make the save. They turn their attention to Ambrose, and Seth makes the save! They finally get on the same page to take out the champs, and Seth sticks out the Shield fist one last time. Dean commits! The place goes absolutely shithouse! WWE Raw GM Kurt Angle comes out to an equally huge pop! He announces Cesaro & Sheamus vs. Ambrose & Rollins for the WWE Tag Team Championship (Raw) at SummerSlam.
Match #1 – #1 Contender’s Match for the WWE Women’s Championship (Raw)
Sasha Banks vs. Nia Jax
The winner of this match faces Alexa Bliss for the Women’s Championship at SummerSlam. Alexa comes out and sits in an elevated chair adjacent to the ring. She looks like a lifeguard out there. Sasha gets the first attack, with forearms to Nia’s face. This is immediately snuffed out by Jax, who bulldozes Sasha to the mat as we go to break. After the break, Sasha fights up to her feet. Sasha gets knocked to the apron, where she tries a Bombs Away onto Jax. Jax catches her in a Power Bomb position, and then ragdolls her head-first into the barricade.
Back inside, Jax gets a nearfall. Nia Jax goes for the Bearhug on Banks, and then ragdolls her again! Standing Vader splash, followed by a HUGE leg drop by Jax for two. Banks tries a roll-up for two, and then climbs on Jax’s shoulders again. This is turned into a Samoan Drop by Jax for one, two, no! Jax hits another Samoan Drop, but this one sends Banks outside the ring. Jax brings her back in, but Sasha fights back and catches a roll-up for one, two, no! Jax misses an elbow, and both women are down as we go to another break!
After another break, Sasha is fighting Nia Jax from the second rope! She rolls over Nia and dropkicks the left leg, bringing Jax off her feet. Banks gets a one, two, no! Sasha is relentless, as she continues to beat down Jax with knees across her chest and face. Jax knocks down Sasha once more, but Sasha fights up and catches the Bank Statement! Jax lifts her up and tries to counter, but Sasha rolls right back into the Bank Statement! Unbelievable! JAX TAPS! What a victory for Sasha Banks! She will face Alexa Bliss for the Women’s Championship (Raw) at SummerSlam.
Winner: Sasha Banks (***1/4)
Angle is backstage with The Hardy Boyz, when The Miztourage interrupts. Miz says that the days of Angle protecting his favorites are over. I didn’t know he was protecting favorites? Anyways, Miz challenges Jason Jordan tonight. After this, Angle is told that Bray Wyatt and Finn Balor are fighting somewhere in the backstage area. With the help of agents and referees, the fight between them is separated. Angle announces that if they can’t keep their cool until SummerSlam, then SummerSlam is coming early for both of them. Their match will take place TONIGHT!
Elias is in the ring. He calls Fenway a “dump”, which is tantamount to blasphemy. He continues to run down the city as the crowd is getting restless. R-Truth interrupts! As he makes his entrance, Samson beats him into dust! R-Truth is NAILED with the Drift Away by Samson.
Big Cass comes out to talk about SummerSlam, with a shark cage in the ring for added effect! Cass starts to speak, but this crowd completely drowns him out in boos. This is pretty spectacular. Cass keeps saying, “This Sunday, at SummerSlam…” but the crowd completely drowns him out! Wow! Finally, he snaps and says “I’ll stay out here all night long!” Cass continues his promo, but this crowd is getting louder and louder with their jeers. Cass tears into Enzo and Show, saying that Enzo constantly gets in trouble with his big mouth. Meanwhile, Show is holding onto relevance, so he finds a friend in Enzo. Cass gives them a news flash: There’s a NEW seven-footer on the block.
Enzo comes out and the crowd is somewhat indifferent. Enzo introduces the Big Show, who comes down to the ring. Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson come down and attack Show! Cass boots Enzo in the face! Gallows and Anderson use a belt to wrap Show’s wrist around the Shark Cage, propped against the doorway. Cass SLAMS the door on Show’s wrist, rendering him helpless! Cass then STOMPS on it. All three men continue the beatdown until Show is lying in a complete heap. Refs come down to check on Big Show as Cole recaps last week’s main event. The Last Man Standing match was pretty incredible. Check out last week’s Raw report for a recap.
Match #2 – SUMMERSLAM COMES EARLY!
WWE Cruiserweight Championship Match – Neville (c) vs. Akira Tozawa
Wait, what?! They’re blowing their load on this already? Akira tries a quick roll-up for two. Neville hits a running charge, and rolls right into the chinlock. Akira rolls out, and the two men exchange sweeps. They go face-to-face, and Akira hits a WICKED dropkick to the chest of Neville. Akira follows up with chops in the corner, but Neville kicks him right in the ribs to bring him down. A very fast exchange leads to a dropkick by Tozawa, followed by a running kick for two! Neville rolls outside as we go to break.
After the break, Neville hits a sweet drop kick (with an even sweeter pose) for two. Neville grabs the injured shoulder of Tozawa’s, and rips into an armbar. Akira counters with a back suplex, and both men are down. They have another sweet exchange that leads to another back suplex by Tozawa! Double Suicide Dive onto Neville! Back inside, Akira gets the cover! One, two, no! Fans are already standing for this. Neville misses a dropkick, and this leads to a front kick and a senton by Akira! Akira climbs up, but Neville forearms him in the face! Akira is stunned! Neville tries to wrap up the superplex, but Tozawa fights back with the crowd cheering him on! SUPERPLEX IS HIT!
Both men are down. Somehow, Akira continues to fight, hitting a forearm and a kick on Neville! This is followed up with a Frankensteiner and an Enziguiri! Akira jumps off the ropes but the refs get between both men! Neville uses this to hit a Single Arm DDT, followed by the Rings of Saturn! This is countered into a roll-up! One, two, no! Akira is knocked down, and Neville tries the Red Arrow! HE MISSES! Tozawa climbs up for the Senton. HE CONNECTS! One, two, three! NEW CHAMPION!
Winner: Akira Tozawa (***1/2, NEW WWE Cruiserweight Champion)
The Titus Brand celebrates in the ring! I think Tozawa is crying! Awesome. After a break, the Cass/Show angle was recapped by the announcers. After this, Enzo and Show are backstage. Show’s hand is believed to be broken, but he simply does not give a shit. He’ll be there at SummerSlam. After this, Emma gets catty with Mickie James, and somehow a match is booked for later. Magic!
Match #3 – SUMMERSLAM COMES EARLY!
Finn Balor vs. Bray Wyatt
Balor catches some side kicks, followed by a chinlock. Wyatt is sent into the corner, but he leans back and looks right at Balor. Balor, for some reason, freezes upon seeing this. Wyatt takes control and beats down Balor. Finn fights up with forearms, and throws Bray outside the ring. Balor hits the diving dropkick, followed by the running front kick from the apron as we go to break.
After the break, Wyatt continues to hold Balor in a chinlock. Balor fights up and hits the elbows to Wyatt’s ribs. Wyatt hits an rib-breaker for two, and follows this up with a lariat for two. BOAH! I could feel that impact. Balor fights out of another chinlock, and catches Wyatt with the Overhead Kick. Both men are down. I’ll say this: There’s only been three matches so far, but they feel like PPV bouts. Balor fights out of the corner with forearms and dropkicks. Wyatt is chopped in the corner, and then Balor hits a running kick for one, two, no! Wyatt hits a flying splatterhouse for two! Uranage by Wyatt is countered into the Sling Blade by Balor. After another exchange, Wyatt slams Balor down and hits the standing senton for one, two, no!
Wyatt tries to hit Sister Abigail, but Balor counters into the double stomp! Wyatt rolls outside, where Balor hits him with a running front dropkick. Back inside, Balor climbs up for the Coup De Grace, but Wyatt counters by knocking him off the ropes! Wyatt literally pulls a prone Balor off the ropes and right into Sister Abigail! One, two, three!
Winner: Bray Wyatt (***)
Afterwards, Wyatt hits another Sister Abigail on Balor, and then the lights go out. When they come back up, Wyatt has a bucket in his hands as Finn is laid out in the corner. Wyatt proceeds to dump a bucket of fake blood onto Balor’s body! Balor writhes around and SELLS the blood! Just what in the feck is happening right now? I guess we’re celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Carrie or something.
Match #4 – Mickie James vs. Emma
They lock up and go into the corner. Emma gets the headlock, but Mickie hits her with a clothesline. Mickie hits a running clothesline, followed by a running kick to the face for two. Emma knocks Mickie off the ropes, and to the outside. Emma brings her back in for a nearfall. Emma puts Mickie in a Seated Full Nelson, and Mickie turns this into a roll-up for two. Emma clotheslines her down and gets another nearfall. They trade nearfalls as the crowd gets restless. Mickie hits a horrible back round leg kick at half speed for the one, two, three!
Winner: Mickie James (1/2*)
Match #5 – Jason Jordan vs. The Miz
The crowd gives Jordan a LOUD thumbs down. Wow. They need to turn this kid now. Jordan gets the sidestep and hits the front face drop on Miz.

Back inside, Jordan slams Miz into the corner, and hits a running shoulder onto a prone Miz! The Miztourage interrupts for the DQ!
Winner by DQ: Jason Jordan (*)
Afterwards, the Hardy Boyz even the odds! They take out The Miztourage, and stand tall with Jason Jordan. That kid’s music sucks. He needs something new.
Match #6 – Six-Man Tag Team Match
Jason Jordan & The Hardy Boyz vs. The Miztourage
So I guess this is a six-man tag now! Vince must be thinking on the fly tonight. Jeff and Matt trade tags while they continue to work on Axel’s arm. Jordan gets the tag, and continues to work on the left arm. Axel fights out and kicks Jordan down in the corner. Jordan catches a dropkick and a deep armdrag. Dallas gets tagged in but he gets taken down in a Fireman’s Carry. Matt tags in and he works on Dallas’ arm! I guess working the arm is the soup du jour. Jeff tags in and they hit the Rolling Thunder on Dallas for two. Jordan tags in and hits another Fireman’s Carry for two. Miz gets the blind tag, but he gets into trouble with Jordan pretty quickly. Jordan whips him into the corner, but Axel pulls Miz out of harm’s way as we go to break.
After the break, Axel takes Jordan down but he misses an elbow from the middle rope. Jordan goes for the hot tag and gets Matt Hardy! Hardy gives Axel the tour of the turnbuckles! Running Bulldog by Matt! One, two, no! Matt Hardy with a reverse bulldog for the one, two, no! Matt is distracted, and Axel takes advantage with a clothesline to the back of the head. Miz tags in, and stomps down Matt. Dallas gets the tag, and continues the stomping. Bo tries a nearfall, but only gets two. Bo applies the chinlock, but Matt fights up. Dallas runs a knee right into Matt’s ribs, bringing him down. Axel gets the tag and applies a chinlock of his own. Matt fights up, but he gets run into the corner.

Jeff hits the Twist of Fate, but Axel breaks it up! Jordan with consecutive belly-to-belly suplexes! Matt with the Twist of Fate on Dallas, followed by the Swanton Bomb by Jeff! One, two, three!
Winner: Jason Jordan & The Hardy Boyz (**1/2)
Raw GM Kurt Angle introduces the WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar! There is extra security outside the ring (to protect the integrity of next week’s main event, of course). Paul Heyman grabs the mic and declares that “all hell is going to break loose.” Heyman also says that WWE is conspiring to take the title off of Brock Lesnar because he is listening to offers from outside interests. Heyman thinks that this could lead to someone stealing the title like a thief in the night. The challengers make their entrance, one by one. Joe comes out first, followed by Strowman and Reigns. After his entrance, Reigns hits the Spear on Joe, and Braun hits the Powerslam on Reigns. This leaves Braun and Brock standing! Security comes in to break it up! They get pummeled by Strowman and Lesnar! The locker room breaks them up once more! They tear into each other as we go to credits!
Final Thoughts: There were some slow parts, but the matches were good and everything was built towards SummerSlam. I look forward to it! Who knows? Maybe we’ll have a picks contest! SEE YOU NEXT SUNDAY!
Ric Flair underwent surgery today at an Atlanta hospital after he was put in a medically induced coma. No information on the procedure was released.
The surgery, reported by TMZ.COM, was ready after 10AM EST and Flair is now resting with his family by his side. TMZ adds that it’s not known yet how surgery went but his family is by his side. Charlotte, who was in China to do promotion for WWE, is back in the United States and is with her father as well.
It is believed that the situation is still very, very worrying and Flair is by no means out of the woods yet. Information regarding his health remains very scarce at this moment.
Adam Cole, the former three-time ROH champion has signed with WWE and is expected to start with NXT imminently reports PWInsider.com.
Cole, a highly-regarded wrestler on the independent circuit, has wrestled for Ring of Honor, Pro Wrestling Guerrilla, Combat Zone Wrestling, and New Japan Pro Wrestling before making his way to NXT.
The 28-year-old former Bullet Club member wrapped up his duties with Ring of Honor in May and was kicked out of the Club by Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks, replacing him with Marty Scurll.
He is the third Ring of Honor guy to come over this year following Bobby Fish and Kyle O’Reilly.
WWE.COM is carrying the Ric Flair hospital story but did not disclose any new information, choosing the quote Legacy Talent CEO Melinda Morris Zanoni’s tweet asking for prayers.
Flair is in a hospital in Atlanta where he was admitted over the weekend. His daughter, Charlotte, flew to China to do some promotion for WWE’s return to the country in September and the launch of the WWE Network and knew everything about the situation involving her father.
It’s being reported that friends are not being allowed to visit although Michael PS Hayes, who lives in the same area, tweeted that he went to visit Flair before flying out yesterday and wrote, “I can assure that he needs everyone’s prayers and positive vibes.”
Meanwhile, Fightful.com founder Jimmy Van added that according to sources close to the Flair family, the Nature Boy was in a medically induced coma as of this morning.
WWE can’t get enough of Brooklyn and the Barclays Center as the New York Post reported earlier today that WWE has agreed to come back to the city next year for SummerSlam 2018.
This will be the fourth year in a row that Brooklyn will host SummerSlam and the show has been held there ever since it left Los Angeles and the STAPLES Center. LA hosted SummerSlam for six consecutive years.
“Our partners in New York have worked tirelessly to help create the incremental growth of SummerSlam week through the presentation of not only our ticketed and fan events at the Barclays Center, but also through the community-based events taking place in the city’s five boroughs,” said John Saboor, WWE’s executive vice president of special events. “We are very proud of that and the work that we have done.”
Along with SummerSlam comes NXT Takeover: Brooklyn, Raw, and Smackdown as well. “Having [WWE] here just does so much [for us],” Keith Sheldon, executive vice president for programming for Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment said. “These are destination events. These are not properties like a concert that is hitting the next city 100 miles away the next night. This is a one-off, mega-event.”
Global Force Wrestling has stripped off the GFW title from Alberto El Patron and despite being cleared from Orlando police of any wrongdoing in the airport incident with Paige, the company has not removed him from the indefinite suspension.
“GFW has concluded its internal consideration of the events surrounding the suspension of Alberto El Patron. While it is apparent that initial reports unfairly characterized El Patron’s involvement in the incident in the Orlando airport, we are nonetheless disappointed with the manner in which he dealt with this situation, we expect more decorum from all on the GFW roster, especially the World Champion,” a statement from GFW read. “We have communicated with El Patron our decision to strip him of his championship title. No decision has been taken as to the date on which he will be reinstated to the roster, the conditions of which are a private matter between the company and El Patron.”
GFW has tapings for Impact this week starting on Thursday with a live-to-tape episode of its flagship show. The statement did not elaborate on what will happen with the title and how they will move forward.
El Patron unified the GFW and TNA titles at Slammiversary XV when he beat Lashley in the main event. The former WWE champion was brought in to kickstart the Anthem-era of Impact and was positioned as one of the top guys in the company ever since.
It seems that the problems that Ric Flair has are worse than his management team at Legacy Talent initially revealed as Melinda Morris Zanoni today gave an update which was not good news.
Her initial tweet and comments to the press were that Flair was in for “routine” checks and nothing to panic about but today, the CEO of Legacy Talent said that if you are a friend or fan of Ric Flair, “we need prayers and positive energy.” Zanoni added that Flair is dealing with “some tough medical issues” although she did not elaborate on the medical problems.
The 68-year-old two-time WWE Hall of Famer was admitted into a hospital after encountering some heart-related problems. He is currently in ICU.
No other information is available as of press time.
Arjan Singh Bhullar, the Canadian MMA fighter of Indian descent, announced on his Instagram today that WWE champion Jinder Mahal will be accompanying him to the Octagon for his debut fight in the UFC in September.
“I was able to watch The Maharaja do his thing in Vancouver and now I’m excited to announce WWE champ Jinder Mahal will be taking time away from his busy schedule to accompany the team for my debut fight in his home province of Alberta,” Bhullar wrote. “Shout out to the boss Dana White for hooking up the VIP treatment.”
Bhullar will be fighting Luis Henrique in the Fight Pass card at UFC 215 which will take place at the Rogers Place in Edmonton.
This will be the first time that a WWE Superstar will be accompanying a UFC fighter at a UFC event. CM Punk tried to accompany Chael Sonnen to a UFC event in Chicago once but Vince McMahon did not approve and the idea was scrapped.
With SummerSlam fast approaching, the Brooklyn Cyclones baseball team announced that on Thursday, WWE Superstars Charlotte Flair, Mark Henry, Apollo Crews, and Carmella will be appearing at the game for SummerSlam Night.
The event takes place at the MCU Park on August 17 and both the Cyclones and WWE will be raising funds for the Boys & Girls Clubs of America.
All four WWE Superstars will be signing autographs for fans who purchase a wristband on the night of the game for a $20 donation to the Boys & Girls Club. The wristband will entitle you to an autograph from one of the two sets of the Superstars who will be stationed on the first base and third base side of the ballpark. There will be a total of 100 wristbands available.
As part of the night’s festivities, fans will be able to purchase a special package which will include field box ticket and SummerSlam t-shirt for $25 with proceeds to benefit the Boys & Girls Club. Anyone who purchases this package will also be entered into a drawing to win a pair of tickets to SummerSlam at the Barclays Center with the winner announced at MCU Park on August 17th during the game.
Angelina Love announced on Twitter that she has departed Global Force Wrestling after she asked for her release.
“I asked for my release from @IMPACTWRESTLING and it was granted today. Thank you for the years of fun and much love to all my fans,” she wrote.
Love had five stints with the company, starting back in 2004 when TNA was just starting. Her first run was short, and then moved to WWE’s developmental territory Ohio Valley Wrestling where she spent three years there.
In late 2007, she returned to TNA and formed The Beautiful People tag team with Velvet Sky. She left TNA two years later in 2009 and after a run with Women Superstars Uncensored, she returned to TNA in 2010. Just like this time, two years after her second return, she asked for her release from the company.
In 2014, Love made her third return to TNA in March and feuded with her former tag team partner. Love got pregnant in 2015 and in March of last year, her contract expired while she was pregnant, ending her fourth stint.
In January of this year, she made her return yet again, teaming up with her husband Davey Richards.
In her five stints with the company, the 35-year-old Canadian won the TNA Knockout title six times as well as the Knockouts Tag Team title once.
Two-time WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair is currently in hospital after his family admitted him due to heart-related problems reports ProWrestlingSheet.com.
However, Flair’s management said that all is good and there’s “no reason to panic” as Flair is in hospital for “some routine monitoring.”
In a tweet, Melinda Morris Zanoni from Legacy Talent, did not provide any more information apart from thanking his family and the incredible hospital staff who are providing the best care for the Nature Boy.
The planned match between WWE United Kingdom champion Pete Dunne and Jack Gallagher for the UK title at tonight’s PROGRESS Wrestling event in New York will not be taking place as Dunne got injured yesterday.
The current champion suffered 11 stitches to his head while wrestling Darius Carter at an event promoted by Battle Club Pro in Brooklyn yesterday and the match had to be cut short so Dunne could receive medical attention. Dunne has not been medically cleared to compete tonight or tomorrow in Boston.
Jim Smallman, the PROGRESS Wrestling co-owner, said in a video uploaded on Twitter that Dunne will still be appearing on both shows although he will not be wrestling.
