As most wrestling fans know, Ric Flair is from North Carolina. Sure, he moved around a lot as a kid but he settled down in North Carolina. Until the mid-1990s, North and South Carolina didn't have an NFL team. But in 1995, the league added both the Panthers and the Jacksonville Jaguars.

In just the team's second year, the Panthers made it to the NFC Championship game where they ultimately fell to the Super Bowl champion Green Bay Packers. Since she was raised in North Carolina and her WWE namesake is Charlotte, aka the Queen City, it's no surprise that Flair is a Panthers' fan.

She showed her love for the team when Carolina met the Peyton Manning-led Denver Broncos in Super Bowl 50 in 2016. The Panthers would go on to lose 24-10 to the Broncos. Too bad the Panthers haven't won as many Super Bowls as Flair has WWE Championships.

Charlotte has been one of the mainstays of WWE's "Divas Revolution." She has won the Raw and Smackdown Women's championship titles a combined record of nine times.
