WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair has made a huge claim via a social media update. His remarks came days after his daughter Charlotte Flair's impressive win on Friday Night SmackDown.
After failing to dethrone Tiffany Stratton at WrestleMania 41, then losing the qualifying bout for the Women's Money in the Bank Ladder Match, and suffering yet another loss in the first-round of The Queen of the Ring Tournament, The Queen put forth a praiseworthy performance on the blue brand to defeat Chelsea Green despite continuous involvement from The Secret Hervice. Alba Fyre and Piper Niven then attacked Flair after the bout, only for Alexa Bliss to show up and save the day.
Earlier today, Ric Flair took to his Instagram account to share a picture of Charlotte Flair wearing her 'Flair First Forever' t-shirt. The 16-time World Champion further noted that it would always be the Flairs first, whether anyone liked it or not.
"It Will Always Be The Flairs First. Whether You Like It Or Don’t Like It, Learn To Love It! WOOOOO! @charlottewwe," he wrote.

WWE Hall of Famer makes a controversial remark about Charlotte Flair
Charlotte Flair is one of the most decorated stars on the WWE roster and is hailed as the best in the history of women's wrestling by many fans. However, wrestling veteran Rikishi has a different opinion.
During a recent edition of his Off the Top podcast, Rikishi noted that he would not consider Flair the greatest women's wrestler in WWE history. The 59-year-old name-dropped some female stars from the past who he thought were very good, but did not get pushed like Flair did.
“No, I wouldn’t. Okay. No, I wouldn’t. There’s so many other wrestlers before her, before her time. You know, had they been young to be able to go… they can keep up with her. It wasn’t built like her, as far as pushing her as far as in superstar status. But there was these… there’s a few of them. There’s Miss Jackie, Miss Texas. Yeah, Miss Texas. Can you imagine Miss Texas [Jacqueline Moore] was young and in this era right now? The way that she worked. Ivory back in the day, right? She again, you know, these names that I’m throwing out there were kind of, like, never really pushed, pushed, but they were so good of workers that they were able to make other superstars," he said.
