Two-time WWE Hall Of Famer Ric Flair recently did an interview with WSVN-TV Entertainment Reporter Chris Van Vliet to talk about a variety of professional wrestling topics. During the interview Flair claimed he doesn’t think John Cena will break his 16 time World Title record, who he thinks is the most talented Superstar on the WWE’s roster today, and how different his career would have been if he was in today’s era. You can check out what he had to say here below:
If he thinks John Cena will break his 16 time World Title record:
“No. Randy Orton is close, so is Triple H. I think John is kind of winding down. He’s got so many other things going on. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s not a host on Good Morning America or The Today Show. I mean he loves wrestling but he’s got so diversified now that I don’t think I’ll see him chasing the Championship realm. But if he does, I’m all about it.”
Who he thinks is the most talented Superstar on the WWE roster:
“Well gosh I think my daughter’s the best male or female they have. I like AJ Styles, I like Randy very much. I like Seth Rollins, I think he’s very good. I love Dolph Ziggler. They have a lot of great talent and it’s hard to pick just one. I have a lot of respect for them and they work really hard.”
How much different his career would have turned out if he broke into the business during this era:
“They wouldn’t be able to afford me. If I was 25 right now and came along, there’s not enough money. He’d have to give me part of the company. If I could walk in like I was in the 80s, make no mistake, he’d have to give me part of the company.”
