Ric Flair’s second induction into the WWE Hall of Fame would spark Charlotte’s interest in a future in the ring, the Nature Boy revealed this week.

Flair’s second induction came in 2012 for his role as part of the Four Horsemen. The induction made Flair the first-ever two-time inductee.

On a recent edition of the “Five Star” podcast, the elder Flair shared how Charlotte first became interested in an in-ring career. He said,

"I mean, she's probably one of the best athletes to ever, you know, be – to ever compete in sports in a high school in the State of North Carolina. Ashley [Charlotte] is such a great athlete, she could have gone to any school in the country with three different sports."

He added, "She ended up coming to see my induction in 2012, my second ring for the Four Horseman, and somebody asked her 'Why aren't you wrestling?' and she walked out the room and I could tell she was thinking out getting back… But she's at the top of the hill now; the best in the business."

Charlotte joined WWE that same year and dedicated her career to her late brother Reid, who died in early 2013.

Flair is currently out of action due to an injury suffered in late 2023 though it has been reported she’ll be back in time for WrestleMania 41.
