Wrestling legend Ric Flair is known for many things – his flamboyant style, his iconic “Woo!” catchphrase, and his record-breaking 16 world title reigns. However, Flair has recently revealed that he would love to see some of the current WWE superstars break his record and cement their own legacies in the wrestling world.
In a recent interview, Flair was asked about the current crop of WWE stars and which ones he would like to see surpass his record. Without hesitation, Flair named his top three picks – John Cena, Roman Reigns, and Charlotte Flair.
First on Flair’s list is none other than the “Face That Runs The Place” – John Cena. With 16 world title reigns under his belt, Cena is already tied with Flair for the most title wins in WWE history. However, Flair believes that Cena has what it takes to surpass his record and become a 17-time world champion.
Cena’s dedication and hard work in the ring have earned him the respect of both fans and fellow wrestlers alike. He has been the face of WWE for over a decade and has consistently delivered memorable matches and storylines. Flair himself has praised Cena’s work ethic, saying, “He’s just an amazing athlete and a great person. He’s a constant professional and he deserves all the success he’s had.”
Next on Flair’s list is another member of the legendary Anoa’i family – Roman Reigns. The current Universal Champion has already held the WWE Championship three times and is well on his way to breaking Flair’s record. Flair sees a lot of potential in Reigns and believes that he has what it takes to become a multiple-time world champion.
Reigns has been a polarizing figure among fans, but Flair believes that he has all the tools to become a top star in the industry. “He’s got the pedigree, he’s got the look, and he’s got the talent. He just needs to keep working hard and he’ll be one of the greatest of all time,” says Flair.
Last but certainly not least is Flair’s daughter – Charlotte Flair. With 12 world title reigns, Charlotte is already one of the most decorated female wrestlers in WWE history. Flair couldn’t be prouder of his daughter’s accomplishments and believes that she has what it takes to surpass his record and become a 17-time world champion.
“Charlotte is the greatest female wrestler of all time. She has the athleticism, the charisma, and the drive to be the best. I have no doubt that she will break my record and continue to make our family proud,” says Flair.
While Flair’s record may seem like a daunting task, these three superstars have all the qualities to achieve it. They have already proven themselves as top talents in the industry and have the support of one of the greatest wrestlers of all time.
Flair’s words of encouragement and support for these three stars show the respect and admiration he has for them. He wants to see them succeed and continue to elevate the sport of wrestling.
As for Flair himself, he may have retired from in-ring competition, but his legacy continues to live on through the current generation of WWE stars. And if and when his record is broken, Flair will be the first to congratulate the one who achieves it.
In conclusion, Ric Flair has named John Cena, Roman Reigns, and Charlotte Flair as the top three WWE stars he would like to see break his world title record. These three superstars have already carved their own paths in the wrestling world and are well on their way to cementing their legacies. Flair’s support and belief in them only adds to their motivation to achieve greatness and break his record. As Flair famously says, “To be the man, you gotta beat the man,” and these three superstars have what it takes to be the man.
