Ric Flair may be battling sickness, but that’s not stopping The Nature Boy from making plans. During his recent appearance on Busted Open Radio, Flair revealed that he’s considering attending this week’s WWE SmackDown at the Amalie Arena in Tampa on December 27.

“I think SmackDown is this Friday, so I might head over to the show to see the guys,” Flair said, hinting at a possible return to WWE’s blue brand.

The two-time WWE Hall of Famer’s health has been a hot topic lately. On the same show, Flair shared a surprising update, admitting he’s been taking antibiotics but questioning their effectiveness due to his unconventional approach. “I’ve been taking some antibiotics and washing them down with vodka, so I don’t know if they are working,” Flair joked, showing his trademark flair for turning serious matters into lighthearted moments.

As always, Flair didn’t hold back on humor, adding that he’s been scouting for a bar open on Christmas. While fans admire his larger-than-life personality, many remain concerned about his well-being, especially considering his history of severe health challenges, including a near-death experience in 2017 due to multiple organ failures and life-threatening infections.
