UPDATE
7/23 9:55 AM PT — Ric Flair just gave fans a closer look at the damage … revealing the large scar on his forehead.
Naitch also shared another apology to the ATL Comic Convention for missing his planned fan event … but based on the image, we take it his supporters will understand.
Ric Flair just knocked out skin cancer once again — the wrestling legend revealed he underwent successful treatment for melanoma.
The 76-year-old shared the news Tuesday morning via social media … featuring a photo of himself in a medical facility. In the image, Flair has bandages on his left arm and above his left eye.
He thanked his doctors at the Academic Alliance in Dermatology for helping him get through his second bout of skin cancer in three years … finishing it off with his classic “WOOOOO” catchphrase.
Flair announced his diagnosis in June. His most recent bout with the disease forced him to pull out of a meet-and-greet with fans in Mississippi a little over a week later, saying melanoma is “nothing to play with.”
“I Have Health Issues, That I Need To Attend To. As I Have Procrastinated Putting My Health First In The Past.”
The Nature Boy has had his share of health issues over the last few years. In 2017, he nearly died due to the failure of multiple organs.
In 2023 … he underwent heart surgery — which included the installation of a pacemaker.
We can’t wait to see you stylin’ and profilin’ again soon, Ric!
