August 16, 2017 | Posted by Larry Csonka

UPDATE: Ric Flair’s girlfriend has posted an update on the WWE Hall of Famer’s health issues. Wendy Barlow says Flair’s condition is still criticial.

Barlow posted, “Just want to give an update to my friends and Family as I have been unable to talk on the phone without crying and just feel shocked over events….I took Ric to the Hospital Friday night with Severe Abdominal pain. From that moment on it all seems like a nightmare…multiple Organ problems. Not to go into too many details I want everyone to know he still needs Prayers as he is still in Critical Condition. And No he did not have Colon Surgery….It was another Surgery! I don’t know how the Media comes up with their stories. I have been by his side since Friday and will continue to make sure he is getting the best care possible. Thanks for all of the support and Love”

The colon surgery story originated with Gene Okerlund, Flair’s longtime friend who expressed that it was colon surgery on Monday.

ORIGINAL: According to PWinsider, a source close to the situation states that Ric Flair did not have colon surgery, as Gene Okerlund (and other sources) initially stated. He did have a surgery but the Flair family has not disclosed what that was publicly. Flair is currently dealing with a number of medical issues on his road to recovery.

F4WOnline also reported that Flair underwent colon surgery to remove a blockage that was the catalyst for a number of different health issues that followed including kidney failure. The surgery was considered a success.
