Ric Flair may be the most decorated pro wrestler of all time but in recent years he has fallen on hard times.

In addition to many divorces and an expensive lifestyle leading to all sorts of financial troubles the one-time megastar has been out of WWE for many years. Some of those were spent in rival TNA -- which is sort of like the RC Cola to WWE's being Coke and Pepsi combined.

More recently, Flair has been somewhat back in the good graces of WWE but medical concerns kept him from a fill-time contract.

Now, multiple news reports have the many time world champion receiving medical clearance and he may debut as soon as tonight (June 16) on Raw.

Don't look for the famed "Nature Boy" to be competing as a wrestler.

Not only did he lose a WWE retirement match -- a stipulation the company has enforced in recent years -- he is also well older than the age WWE wants to put people in the ring at.

Since Jerry Lawler's heart attack WWE has been unwilling to put an older wrestler in a match.

Instead look for Flair to be managing and mentoring a younger star.
