This is wild!
Ric Flair, one of the greatest wrestlers ever to do it, says he suffered a heart attack during his last match.
Talking to doctors, Flair was told he had a heart attack sometime in the past two years, and the legend himself thinks he knows when it went down.
Making a recent appearance on “The Jaxxon Podcast,” Flair said he was told this information near the end of 2023, and according to the legend himself, it took place back on July 31, 2022 when he performed in his last match.

“I went to get what’s called a calcium scan, which I’d never had before, because a couple of guys died in our business of heart issues so it kind of scared me,” Flair said. “They give you the nuclear stress test, shoot you with the dye, put you on the treadmill, everything. It’s two days of three hours of tests. This is six months ago. The guy takes me in, and if you look at your heart like a round pie, there’s a piece of my heart right here this big, it’s black, it’s gone.”
“The guy said, ‘You’ve had a heart attack in the last two years,” he added.
Ric Flair reveals that he suffered a legitimate heart attack during his last match in 2022:
“I trained (for my last match), I got in the best shape, ever since I was 20 years old, and then I had a heart attack during the match. I had a heart attack during the match.
