Wrestling veteran shares intriguing take on Charlotte Flair's feud with Tiffany Stratton

Charlotte Flair and Tiffany Stratton exchanged several personal remarks before their championship match at WrestleMania 41. While reviewing Night One of The Show of Shows with Dr. Chris Featherstone, former head writer for the Stamford-based promotion, Vince Russo spoke about Flair and Stratton's intense rivalry.

Russo noted that Charlotte pushing Tiffany to her limit reminded him of Ric Flair and his old-school mindset. He thought Flair was trying to check if the champion could hang on with her and go to the next level.

"I think this is an old timey thing. It's no surprise her dad is Ric Flair. I think that's a lot of what's going on. And a lot of what's going on with Charlotte is, 'Okay Tiffy, if you're the girl that's going to the next level, then you better freaking hang with me. Let's see if you're ready to go to that next level because if you don't hang with me, I'm going to embarrass you.' That's very Ric Flair, bro. That is very old school," he said. [From 52:40 onwards]
