6 shocking moments that happened backstage in WWE

#2 The Nature Boy keeps his distance

The Nature Boy did not view women's wrestling highly when his daughter entered the industry.

Critics of Charlotte Flair have often said that she’s only in the position she is today, thanks to her Hall of Fame father, Ric Flair.

But what they probably don’t know, is that during the Queen’s early career, both Flairs kept their distance, with Charlotte revealing on Edge and Christian’s podcast that she would rarely talk to her father about anything wrestling, instead getting advice from trainers.

The former RAW and SmackDown Women’s Champion admitted that her father didn’t exactly view women’s wrestling highly during her early career, which only caused more friction between the two.

This all changed, however, when the Nature Boy saw his princess win the NXT Women’s Championship in 2014, and was overwhelmed with emotion.

With both Flairs in tears of joy, the friction between them dissolved, and the two-time WWE Hall of Famer has since gone on to become his daughter’s biggest fan.
