Wrestling icon Ric Flair has been hospitalized in Atlanta after suffering an unspecified medical emergency.
According to TMZ, Flair, 70, was taken to the emergency room and the website is reporting that his situation is 'very serious.'
However, his son-in-law Conrad Thompson told https://twitter.com/SeanRossSapp/status/1129070551048380416 that this was a planned procedure and Flair's situation 'is not as grave or serious' as the TMZ report makes it seem.
'This was not a last-minute surprise surgery,' said Thompson, who is married to Flair's daughter Megan. 'Ric's in good spirits.'
The WWE did not immediately respond to the Daily Mail's request for comment.
