WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair is slated to return to the company in a non-wrestling role once he passes some tests, but his daughter, who goes by the ring name Charlotte, is currently tearing it up in NXT as the NXT Women's Champion, and "The Nature Boy" recently spoke about her following in his footsteps.

Flair recently talked to the Niagara Falls Review to promote his upcoming appearance at Niagara Falls Comic Con this coming weekend and spoke about Charlotte breaking into the business while saying he expects her to join the WWE's main roster "real soon."
"I didn't encourage her, she just went to WrestleMania with me," Flair told the publication about his daughter decinding to wrestle. "She was making a real nice living running a personal training center. John Laurinaitis saw her and said, 'Why aren't you wrestling?"

Flair was at Charlotte's side during last week's WWE NXT Takeover event and guided his daughter as she defeated Natalya, who was flanked by fellow WWE Hall of Famer Bret "Hitman" Hart, to win the vacant NXT Women's Championship.

Flair also spoke about being at WrestleMania and witnessing Brock Lesnar end The Undertaker's undefeated streak.
"I wanted to see The Streak go on, but I understand. Times change, it is what it is. You saw how quiet the fans got. They weren't ready for that, so obviously they didn't foresee that," he said.
Another topic Flair commented on was ignoring the internet fans who think they know everything about the business, and he added that he was surprised when Daniel Bryan defeated Triple H, Randy Orton and Batista in two separate matches in the same night to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania XXX on April 6.
"I don't pay any attention to that,' he said of internet fans. "The internet thinks they're smarter than we are, but they're not. If you read the internet, it's like watching Fox News, you don't know what to believe. They all want to predict what they think will happen, but nobody ever knows for sure. As an example, 42 years in the business and I never thought Daniel Bryan would win that match [at WrestleMania]. I didn't think he was going to beat Hunter, and I'm attuned to it!"
The "Nature Boy" is slated to return to the WWE -- likely as a manager to The Miz or another WWE Superstar -- very soon.
