Charlotte Flair, according to WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry, could eclipse Ric Flair’s accomplishments if she wrestled men first and then returned to the women’s division. Charlotte is a 13-time women’s champion and her championship laurels include 6 Raw Women’s reigns, 6 SmackDown women’s reigns and one Divas championship reign. Not only that, Charlotte Flair is a two-time NXT women’s champion with a combined 321 days of reign. She also won the women’s royal rumble and went on to challenge Rhea Ripley for her NXT Women’s Championship, subsequently winning it at Wrestlemania 36.

Charlotte recently in an interview to Sportskeeda spoke about wanting to wrestle men and winning a Men’s Championship. During his interview on the Busted Open podcast, Mark Henry was asked what it would take for Charlotte to surpass Ric Flair’s accomplishments:

13-time Women's Charlotte Flair can wrestle men if allowed to.

“She has the potential to eclipse Ric if she’s allowed to wrestle men and have a run doing that and then going back to women’s wrestling and being the ultimate heel, like, ‘I left y’all because y’all beneath me.’ That can be, you know, another 10 years of her dominance that can make people only think that when you hear the name ‘Flair’ that you think Charlotte,” said Henry.

In a segment involving Drew Gulak, Charlotte Flair put a warning display in front of Ronda Rousey by putting Gulak in a figure eight on SmackDown. TLC Legend Bully Ray, after the segment, felt that it is time for charlotte to wrestle men on the WWE Roster:

“I love the fact that she put the figure eight on a man last night. I want Charlotte to wrestle men. As a matter of fact, moving into this match, you know, put the figure eight on two more guys, three more guys, have guys tapping out left and right.”

Charlotte is currently involved in a feud with Ronda Rousey, who also put Drew Gulak in an arm bar the previous week. The two superstars are slated to face each other at Wrestlemania Backlash.
