Of all the weekends Ric Flair has had in his life, this past weekend probably won’t rank among the best. Not only was Flair forced to cancel a performance over the weekend due to a blood clot in his leg, but the WWE Hall of Famer collapsed after leaving the bargiving him a massive cut on his face and forcing him to go to the hospital. And Flair is still reeling from his fall a few days later. Heading to X on Monday night, Flair posted a photo with a friend in which he was noticeably sporting a bandage over his right eye.

Flair is already out, it shouldn’t come as a surprise since her daughter, WWE’s Charlotte Flair, was found to be behaving normally after the falleven joking with his doctors that the injury was caused by being dropped on the head by the late WWE Hall of Famer Ultimate Warrior. Flair himself took to social media to reassure fans that he was fine and would make a full recovery, while thanking the medical staff for their help. The background to his outing Monday night suggests that Flair was in the vicinity of Game 3 of the World Series, where the Tampa Bay Rays hosted the Milwaukee Brewers; The Rays would eventually lose 10-1, falling 3 games to 0.
The fall likely won’t change Flair’s status in terms of potential wrestling television appearances, as “The Nature Boy” hasn’t appeared at a wrestling event since 2025. The video was published in September. Flair tells Booker T that he’s “back with the WWE”. and was looking forward to appearing at the WWE Royal Rumble PLE. Flair later revealed that the video was years agoand that he is still under contract with AEW.
