Zanoni posted this tweet earlier this evening, but it is still unknown why Flair underwent the surgery and await further details. TMZ also reported the surgery was successful, but did not provide any other details besides his family was at his side and Flair is resting.
On a related note, WWE RAW commentators Michael Cole, Corey Graves and Booker T did acknowledge Flair’s situation on air tonight and wished him well
Thoughts and prayers are going out to @RicFlairNatrBoy and his family tonight after undergoing surgery earlier today. pic.twitter.com/5a0cx9VYAr
