Ric Flair wants to see Charlotte Flair face this opponent at WrestleMania 41.
At the 2025 Royal Rumble on February 1st, Charlotte Flair made her return to WWE for the first since suffering a knee injury in December of 2023. Flair entered the match at number 27 and last eliminated Roxanne Perez to become the first woman to win a second Royal Rumble match in her career.
Flair’s Royal Rumble win guarantees her a title shot on The Grandest Stage of Them All, and The Queen has made it clear that she’ll take her time choosing which title to go after. Reports indicate that Flair will likely face WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton, and Stratton has made it clear that she wants Flair to choose her. However, Flair’s Hall of Fame father wants to see a different match.
Speaking in a recent interview with Gabby AF, Ric Flair indicated that he wanted to see another rematch between Rhea Ripley and Charlotte Flair.
“Between the two [Tiffany and Rhea], I think I’d rather see Rhea because she and Rhea had such an incredible match two years ago. They haven’t had a match like that in women’s division that I’ve seen on TV anywhere. Rhea won the match, but it was the best match on the show. It was incredible.”
How Many Times Have Charlotte Flair & Rhea Ripley Fought At WrestleMania?
The two women have clashed at WrestleMania on two separate occasions. Flair won the NXT Women’s Championship from Ripley at WrestleMania 36, and Ripley went on to defeat Flair at WrestleMania 39.
Continuing, Ric Flair said that while Stratton is a “great girl,” he’d rather see his daughter face off against the more familiar opponent.
“Tiffany is a great girl but I’d rather see that. [Charlotte vs Rhea].”
