Legendary wrestler Ric Flair has been in the hospital for just over a week dealing with multiple organ problems, but the recent updates provided by his fiancee and a representative from his agency have signaled that the Nature Boy is improving.
On Sunday night, just as SummerSlam was getting set to begin, Flair’s daughter and WWE superstar Charlotte took to Instagram to provide a new update on her father. Charlotte encouraged all of the WWE stars at SummerSlam to give a little extra in honor of her father and noted that he’s getting better but still has a long way to go.

After an incredibly hard week, my dad is getting better. There is still a long road to go and he’s not out of the woods just yet but I want to again thank everyone for their support on behalf of myself and my family. My dad has given his life to sports entertainment. To everyone competing tonight, you know he’d be backstage watching if he could. Give it a little extra flair for him tonight. Woooo!
It’s good to hear that Flair is improving and to hear publicly from members of his family, after there were so many reports about the severity of his status amid understandable silence from the Flairs. Hopefully Ric will be able to make a full recovery and be back to his normal self in the near future.
