Ric Flair Receives Visit From Pro Basketball Legend

Ric Flair has been doing much better recently. It’s actually a little bit of a miracle he’s doing so well. But Ric Flair is no stranger to surviving against all odds because he’s been doing it his entire career.

Flair has come out of plane crashes, bad bumps, and being struck by lightning and he hasn’t skipped a beat. Now he appears even more immortal by pulling out of that awful health crisis where he reportedly had around a 20% chance of survival.

We all care about Ric Flair and hope he can start living a life which will allow him to see many years to come. We’re obviously not the only ones who feel this way because ever since the news of his health scare broke plenty of people including fans and other celebrities have sent out well wishes for The Nature Boy.

Now one more famous face is showing up to offer encouragement for Ric as he recovers from his recent health scare. Sir Charles Barkley is a basketball great and he wasn’t bad at commentary or hosting Saturday Night Live either. Barkley had a chance to spend some time with Flair in WCW and the two apparently developed a friendship that lasts to this day.

The Nature Boy recently tweeted out a picture of Sir Charles visiting him to wish him the best. It’s a cool picture, but what’s even more awesome is fact Ric Flair seems to be doing so well at this point because there were a couple days before SummerSlam this year when we were legit worried for the 16 time World Champion.

It’s news like this that just makes you wanna shout: “wooo!”
