WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair took to Twitter on Friday, sharing a recent voicemail he received from Terry Funk. We reported earlier this week that Funk is currently in an assisted living facility and is dealing with dementia. An official statement said Funk was dealing with “multiple health issues, which do affect his mind as well as the rest of his body.”
During the voicemail to Flair, Funk said,
“Hey Flair, this is The Funker, why don’t you ever give me a call? My number… you should have the God damn thing after 40 years. Flair, give me a call. God damn.”
Tommy Dreamer also took to Twitter earlier this week, saying,
“It started on Don Muraco’s podcast where he’s talking to Scott Casey and apparently they painted him as not being able to put sentences together and having dementia. I told Terry this, and I won’t say what he said about Scott Casey except, ‘He’s full of s***, always was.’”
Terry, We Have Wrestled For Hours And Have Been Friends For What Seems Like A Lifetime! YOU NEVER QUIT!! Be Strong As Always! I’m Coming To See You Soon! pic.twitter.com/pmSuxpenbk
