#4. WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair's daughter: Megan Fliehr

WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair has been married several times and has four children. While three of his kids have become professional wrestlers, only one has never competed inside the squared circle.

In the book "Second Nature: The Legacy of Ric Flair and the Rise of Charlotte," the current SmackDown Women's Champion Charlotte Flair, disclosed that her sister Megan was an outstanding athlete growing up. However, she did not want to become a wrestler.

"Megan is the oldest of the Fliehr kids and the most intelligent,'' Charlotte said. ''She was a standout basketball player, has a great sense of humor, and is the only one of us who never sought a life in the squared circle. As the oldest Fliehr child, she’s had to be the toughest emotionally. Megan bottle-fed me as a baby and is someone I’ve idolized my entire life. Megan’s been there for me every step of the way."

While Charlotte Flair is one of WWE's biggest stars, her sister prefers to stay away from the spotlight. However, Megan did appear with her father on an episode of WCW nearly two decades ago. She also appeared in a few wrestling documentaries highlighting her father's career.
