Ric Flair shares his thoughts on current champion on WWE RAW. The WWE Hall of Famer analyzed the champion ahead of the money in the bank PPV.

Wrestling, down to its basic, is a story between good guys and bad guys and who better than Ric Flair to know what it takes to be a bad guy. The WWE Hall of Famer built a career out of  paying audience wanting to see him getting his behind handed to him.

Flair doesn’t wrestle anymore but he is still an avid follower of the business and one woman he has been keeping an eye on is his daughter’s opponent this Sunday and RAW Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley. Appearing on WWE’s The Bump, Flair sent a message towards the young champion.

Ric Flair shares his thoughts on current champion on WWE RAW

“I love you Rhea Ripley, but you’re just too nice; Too nice to be bad. That’s a compliment but Rhea is a nice girl. She doesn’t know how to be bad, but she’s gonna learn. But hey, [she’s] a great champion and deserves all the accolades.

“If you look at the number of people that come through the WWE, from the past to today, how many can ever say they were the champion? What percentage? And for Rhea to beat Asuka, who I think is one of the three or four most technically gifted wrestlers I’ve ever seen in the Women’s division, was a huge victory for her and I’m sure it really helped her with her confidence which is huge part of this business . . . Rhea’s at the top of her game, but she’s just too nice.”


Rhea Ripley will defend her RAW Women’s Championship against Charlotte Flair this Sunday at Money in the Bank.

Archie is a WWE and UFC Editor/Author at the SportsRush. Like most combat sports enthusiasts, his passion for watching people fight began with WWE when he witnessed a young Brock Lesnar massacre Hulk Hogan back in 2002. This very passion soon branched out to boxing and mixed martial arts. Over the years he fell in love with the theatrics that preceded the bell and the poetic carnage that followed after. Each bruise a story to tell, each wound a song of struggle, his greatest desire is to be there to witness it all. His favorite wrestler is Shawn Michaels and he believes that GSP is the greatest to ever step foot inside the octagon. Apart from wrestling, he is also fond of poetry and music.
