ZeeboiWWE legend Ric Flair has made a bold claim about his daughter Charlotte Flair’s standing in professional wrestling, putting her above some of the company’s biggest male superstars.
The Nature Boy’s comments come after Charlotte’s triumphant return from a serious knee injury that sidelined her for over a year, culminating in a spectacular victory at the 2025 Royal Rumble.
In an interview with TMZ, the 16-time world champion didn’t hold back in praising his daughter’s abilities:
“It was a horrible injury, and it’s hard to do anything on the sidelines when you’re right in the middle of your career. She’s never been hotter, but Undertaker said it best, she came back, and she regained the crown.
“She’s the greatest female wrestler of all time. She might be the best wrestler in the business right now. Forget about Cena and Cody [Rhodes] and those guys. She’s that good.”
Flair emphasized how Charlotte has fully embraced her villainous persona, drawing parallels to his own legendary heel work:
“She’s on fire, man. Sometimes, it takes a while to find your niche. She’s a heel. She’s like me. She can be a babyface because she can do a lot of stuff, but she’s a heel, man. She’s badass.
“Now, she’s getting to really feel herself. I’m glad that they’re letting her be who she is. When you’re the best, you can say anything you want to say.”
The Queen’s WrestleMania 41 showdown against rising star Tiffany Stratton now carries extra significance following these comments, as Charlotte looks to prove her father right by cementing her status as WWE’s top performer – regardless of gender.
This bold declaration from one of wrestling’s most iconic figures adds another layer to Charlotte’s already impressive legacy, positioning her not just as the standard-bearer of women’s wrestling, but potentially the entire industry.
