Ric Flair appears to be in damage control mode after criticizing WWE over Charlotte Flair’s booking.
The Nature Boy has been quite vocal about his daughter’s booking as of late. Appearing on The Ariel Helwani Show, Flair vented his frustration over Charlotte’s placement on the WrestleMania 42 card.
For those unaware, Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss challenged for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship in a fatal four-way match on WrestleMania Saturday. The titles ultimately ended up being won by Nikki Bella and the returning Paige.
“I didn’t like her match at all, and I think that Ashley needs to be. And I know she enjoys the relationship with Alexa, but alas, if Ashley is not in the title picture right now in my life and as a spectator, and I meet a lot of people, a lot of athletes,” Flair said.
Ric Flair sets the record straight on WWE criticism
Taking to X, Flair clarified that while he is more than thrilled to see Charlotte team up with Alexa Bliss, he prefers her in singles competition because it allows her to showcase more of her talent.
“I Want To Make Something Very Clear To Everyone After Yesterday’s Podcast With @arielhelwani
. Number One- I’m More Than Thrilled To See @MsCharlotteWWE Wrestling With Her Friend @AlexaBliss_WWE. I’ve Never Seen Her Happier! So Let’s Clear That Up! Number Two- I Enjoyed Her In Singles Matches Because I Feel Like She Is Able To Put More Of Her Talent On Display.”
Ric Flair also urged people to avoid reporting on him unless the information is fully verified.
“Number Three- No One Will Ever Criticize Or Make Any Attempt To Judge My Daughters Or Say Anything About Them. Number Four- I Wish We Could All Just Put Everything Behind Us, And Please Don’t Report Something On Me Unless It’s 100% True. Thank You! May We All Continue To Be Successful, And For So Many Of Us As We Grow Older, There May Be No Tomorrow. May Peace And Friendship Be With Us All. Let’s Go Back To Being The Brotherhood That We Were. That Was So Sacred At One Time!”
