12. Ric Flair Has Family and Financial Troubles
Via foxnews.com
Ric Flair is one of the greatest icons in professional wrestling’s history. This is why it is such a head-scratcher that outside of the ring, he has a lot of issues, particularly when it comes to money. Flair has been involved in several lawsuits, and he has even been evicted from his house after the money troubles came to a head. Worse yet, he has been accused of abusing his three ex-wives. Flair has also had struggles with alcohol, like many athletes, which have only added to his problems. The Nature Boy still makes appearances at WWE events, mostly to watch his daughter, Charlotte, compete in the WWE Divas Division.

Lex Luger was once a force to be reckoned with, one of the top contenders for the WWF championship before turning over to the WCW. During his time with the WCW, he did become champion. After leaving the spotlight, though, things took a dark turn for Luger, who was arrested in the early 2000s for alleged abuse against wrestling’s Miss Elizabeth. Sadly, Miss Elizabeth overdosed in Luger’s home at a later time. A string of felony charges led to Luger’s arrest and 3-month imprisonment, along with five years of probation. During that time, Luger found religion and turned his life around, proving that even wrestlers who hit rock bottom can come out on top.
