Charlotte Flair, as you all know, is the daughter of the sixteen-time World Champion, Ric Flair. From the moment she made her debut in WWE, many fans and critics have claimed that she is where she is because of her father. Yes, her father is arguably one of the greatest Superstars in wrestling history. But does that mean Charlotte's smooth in-ring abilities can be written off?
Charlotte Flair on Ric Flair's influence on her career
The Queen was in an interview with Better Together recently. In the interview, she touched upon topics regarding a reality show and her father. When asked about her views on people saying that she has reached this far in her career only because of her father's influence in the industry, the former NXT Champion said the following,
“That everyone goes, she’s just a Flair. Nepotism. I see that word all the time. I mean if anyone really does the research, when I started at FCW, which is now NXT, my dad wasn’t even with the company. I don’t even know what standing my dad had with the company at that time. Yes, growing up around wrestling and my dad having relationships with the McMahons and Triple H and whatever people like to say, but I made myself the reliable one. I think I’m damned if I do, I’m damned if I don’t. People are always going to think that. It’s just the way it is when you have a famous parent in the same industry.” (h/t 411mania.com)
