Ric Flair to Begin Skin Cancer Treatment Next Week

Ric Flair, the 76-year-old wrestling Hall of Famer, has confirmed a recurrence of skin cancer and will begin treatment next week. Initially, Flair denied reports of his illness to protect his privacy but later revealed his diagnosis and thanked fans for their concern. This diagnosis follows a near-fatal health crisis in 2017 triggered by alcohol abuse, which resulted in kidney failure, heart complications, and a medically induced coma. Flair's health and addiction struggles were chronicled in his 2022 documentary, where he discussed coping with adversity through his wrestling persona. Despite health setbacks, Flair remains active in the wrestling community and continues to receive strong support from fans and colleagues. The wrestling world has united in sending best wishes as he faces this latest challenge.
