NEWS ITEMS: Flair kicked out of a bar for insulting staff, Patterson returning to Cow Palace, Kofi undergoes ankle surgery

-Ric Flair got kicked out of a bar, “The Deck,” in Ft. Wayne, Ind. this weekend. The story has made local news, detailing how Flair called a bartender “fats” and “dumbass,” and was then kicked out. The restaurant manager, Laurie Schrader, told WISH-TV that he was around five minutes when he began to “hurl insults.” (SOURCE)

-WWE.com reports that Kofi Kingston underwent ankle surgery and will several weeks of action. In reality, Kofi needed surgery for a relatively minor issue with bone chips. Scott Dawson on Twitter is playing into the angle on Raw last week, though, taking credit for the surgery being needed, which is certainly better than what other wrestlers on the WWE roster would likely do in this situation, which is break character and tweet “get better soon, pal, look forward to working with you to settle our ‘feud.'”
