WWE

An update has been provided on top WWE star and former 14-time women’s champion Charlotte Flair’s recovery from a major injury.

On the December 8 Tribute To The Troops edition of WWE SmackDown, Asuka defeated Charlotte Flair. However, Flair suffered a torn ACL injury during the course of the bout.

WWE would later reveal that Charlotte will be out of action for a projected nine month timetable.

In a new interview with Busted Open Radio, Ric Flair provided an update on Charlotte Flair’s injury and recovery. He said:

“I was speaking with Dr. Dugan. He’s been there 30 years,”

“He said Ashley is one of the top three athletes that they have ever done surgery on. Think about that. We’re talking Bo Jackson. We’re talking, I mean, I can go down the list of people.”

“The Tommy John’s. He said we consider her one of the top three athletes, not wrestlers, to ever come through the doors.”

Flair continued on to praise Charlotte’s recovery skills, saying:

“Her recovery, she’s crushing it. She’s actually going to come back faster than they will ever recommend.”

“That’s unbelievable. I thought that might be one of the biggest compliments anybody could ever get.”

“I mean, it’s unfortunate that it had to come from a doctor in a hospital, but I keep telling people, man, she’s a different kind of cat.”

Ric Flair currently works for All Elite Wrestling, while Charlotte Flair is on the WWE SmackDown brand.

Ric Flair will be in Sting and Darby Allin’s corner for Sting’s retirement match on March 3 at AEW Revolution.
