Ric Flair is showing receipts from Hulk Hogan’s widow in the aftermath of a major controversy.
The Nature Boy triggered the internet with his comments about the circumstances surrounding Hulk Hogan’s death. In an interview with Doubl3 Coverage, Flair blamed illicit drugs for the Hulkster’s passing.
“I talked to him the day before he died,” he said. “… I shouldn’t say this, but what killed him was street drugs. When the doctor wouldn’t prescribe anymore. He was in so much pain, then he had that neck surgery, and it got infected, so back in the hospital, mentioned 10 back surgeries, two knees, two hips, all this.
“When the doctor would not prescribe any more pain medicine. They just couldn’t do it all due conscious, right? Yeah, so they went and got their drugs off the street, his body just said, ‘You know what? Bingo, I can’t do it anymore.’” [H/T: WrestlingNews.co]
Ric Flair initially doubled down on his comments until Sky Daily’s strong reaction prompted him to retract the statement. Flair also responded to criticism from pro wrestler and booker Devon Nicholson (aka Hannibal), calling him “full of sh*t” in an angry social media meltdown.
