Ric Flair Reveals Why Changes Were Made To Charlotte Vs Sasha WWE HIAC Match, Talks Golderg's Return
Ric Flair was on Busted Open today with Doug Mortman and Dave LaGreca. During the appearance, he discussed his daughter Charlotte's history making main event match with Sasha Banks at Hell in a Cell, John Cena going for his 16th WWE World Championship and Goldberg returning to the WWE to face Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series. They sent us these highlights:
Charlotte's ability:
"I think she's the best worker in the company, man or woman. She's right there with Seth Rollins, or Randy Orton, or Hunter [Triple H]. There's nothing she can't do, A.J.[Styles], anything that they can do, she can do."
Charlotte vs. Sasha Banks closing WWE Hell In A Cell:
"For Vince to put them in the main event, you know, if I'm there and I'm watching the show, it's a good thing they were in the main event, because nothing could have followed it."
The Hell in a Cell match:
"They took two huge spots out of the match, during the match, because they were afraid Sasha [Banks] was going to get hurt. If the original plan had been, there were two things and I don't want to say what they were, but you can only imagine. One of them involved a moonsault."
John Cena beating his 16x Championships record:
"Sixteen's not the real number anyway. They just plain won't recognize two of them, so that's 18, and then there were three more. No, but, I think the world of John [Cena] and I would have no problem with that happening."
Goldberg's return:
"I'm not shocked by that all, Bill [Goldberg] was over. He was one of those characters they pounded into their minds for 3 or 4 years? I just texted Bill yesterday because I watched him on [ESPN] First Take, it's hard to take that much time off and then of all people to get in the ring with for the first time is Brock, oh my god, [laughs] there ain't nothing good about that! Bill's a big strong guy, but I don't think he's ever taken a German suplex."
