Flair to Have Shoulder Surgery
Just when I thought Ric was going to become a 15-time World Champion, things go sour. I've heard several reports that "The Nature Boy" will need to take some time off for shoulder surgery. I understand why he is doing the current angle with David, because this allows him to help get his son over before he takes his leave of absence. The current plan, from what I've heard, is for Ric to have the match with David at the Great American Bash instead of going after the World Title. He is slated to lose the match to David and then do a temporary "retirement angle" while taking the rest of the summer off for his shoulder surgery and recooperation. He is expected to make his return in the fall. They will probably have Ric return in September when WCW comes back to the Carolinas. Maybe I can be there when he comes back! But I will still miss him while he's not on TV. The shows are not the same when he's gone! I still believe that he will be a 15-time World Champion, though. If it happens my way, he will win his 15th World Title in Charlotte , NC, and I'll be sitting ringside for it.
