Ric Flair has responded to a former WWE manager on social media. He has accepted that he wants to die in the "limelight."
Dutch Mantell has been involved in the wrestling business for several decades. His most recent well-known role in WWE was as manager to Jack Swagger (now known as Jake Hager) and Alberto Del Rio. Since leaving WWE, he hasn't been involved with the promotion in any capacity. However, he continues to follow the wrestling industry and remains up to date.
Dutch Mantell recently commented on his podcast that Ric Flair wants to die in the "limelight." The Nature Boy responded to him on social media and seemed to agree with the veteran:

"Dutch, I’m So Happy To Admit That I Agree With Every Comment You Made About Me. I Was Lucky To Not Die Of A Heart Attack In The Ring During My Last Match. But You’re Right, I Do Want To Die In The Limelight. I’ve Been In It Since I Was 15 Years Old. I’m 75 years Old Now, Still In The Limelight And Still The Main Event! Jesal Popat MD Was The Doctor Who Diagnosed Me With The Heart Attack. Most Credible Heart Surgeon In Tampa! FYI- It’s A B**ch Being The Star!"
