Ric Flair Leaves Tour:
Several wrestling websites are reporting that Ric Flair has left TNA's overseas tour. The Pro Wrestling Torch reports that Flair asked for advanced payment from the tour manager. When the manager refused, Flair reportedly felt disrespected and did not join the others on the bus from Ireland headed to Germany.
The company named this particular tour of Europe "Maximum Wooo!" in honor of the 16 time world champion.
Again, these are online reports. Not sure exactly what the situation is. I haven't seen any official word from TNA via Twitter or their website. I would assume cooler heads will prevail and we won't see Flair as a surprise entrant in the Royal Rumble Sunday, although I would mark out if it happened.
Jesse Ventura Sues:
This info comes from CNN. They're reporting that WWE Hall of Famers Jesse "the Body" Ventura has filed suit against the Department of Homeland Security and the Transportation Safety Administration. The suit alleges those pat-downs and full body scans going on at airports now violate Ventura's rights under the Fourth Amendment, which protects Americans from unreasonable searches and seizures.
Reportedly, the Body isn't seeking financial gain from the suit. He just wants an acknowledgement from the court that his rights have been violated and a court order that would stop the government from subjecting him to the screenings.
Ventura has a titanium hip and flies a couple times a week according to his attorney.
