WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair took to Twitter just a few minutes ago, issuing his first public comments since his health issues earlier this month:
Sometimes you have to get knocked down lower than you have ever been, to stand up taller than you ever were. Naitch WILL be back! ???? pic.twitter.com/v9YbIEykt9

As PWInsider.com reported last night, Flair is ambulatory and is already walking with assistance. He is expected to undergo a surgery to put a permanent pacemaker in and will need to undergo physical therapy in the weeks to come. We send Ric our continued best wishes.
For those who have asked, PWInsider.com has confirmed that the Table for 3 episode featuring Ric Flair, Ricky Steamboat and Sting, which was pulled from its planned airing on the WWE Network when Ric Flair's health issues became known earlier this month, is now slated to debut on the Network in mid-September.
