Legendary professional wrestling star Ric Flair has been hospitalized and is dealing with some unnamed “tough medical issues.”
Over the weekend Flair visited the hospital for “routine monitoring,” according to his representatives from Legacy Talent Agency, TMZ reports. Originally, Flair’s reps claimed that there was “no reason to panic,” but it seems to have taken a turn for the worse.

The 68-year-old’s reps posted a message on Sunday night confirming that he was still in the hospital and asked his fans for support.
“We need your prayers, positive energy and well wishes for our Living Legend as he is dealing with some tough medical issues,” the post read.
Although the Nature Boy’s agency didn’t list the medical concerns, it’s clear that his condition has worsened over the weekend.
Whatever it is he’s going through will certainly stand no chance against the former pro wrestler if he fights it with the same tenacity that he used to have in the ring.
