Charlotte Flair Says Now She Understands How Ric Flair Felt About Retiring in 2008

WWE Superstar Charlotte Flair recently spoke to CBS Sports and revealed that when her father Ric Flair retired from WWE after WrestleMania 24 in 2008, she didn't understand why he had such a hard time dealing with retirement, but now she understands how he felt:

“In 2008 when my dad retired, I really couldn’t understand why he was having such a hard time. I was so frustrated, and there were a lot of arguments, and I was extremely hard on him. I looked at him and said, ‘Dad, no one has had a better career than you. You’ve had this amazing life. Go out on top.’ And that was retiring against Shawn Michaels, arguably one of the greatest performers of our time.”

“So, I couldn’t grasp why, and then where I am today, and working on the book for two years and being a part of WWE, I just wish I could go back in time and acted differently and had been more supportive of my dad, because now I can’t imagine not doing this. Nothing is like the rush of a crowd, or walking through for your entrance in ‘gorilla.’”

“There’s nothing like performing for the WWE audience and my dad did that for 40 years of his life and now I understand why he had such a hard time and why he wouldn’t ever want to let it go.”
