After it wasn’t expected Ric Flair would make it through surgery, he made an unusual request to Hulk Hogan. The health scares of ‘The Nature Boy’ Ric Flair over recent years have been well documented. This didn’t stop him having one “final” match last year, and even on that occasion he said he passed out twice during the contest.
