The current NXT Womens Champion is on the right path when it comes to becoming a major star in WWE, and she in no small part owes that to her father, Nature Boy Ric Flair. But make no mistake, Charlotte has turned heads during the past two years in terms of her overall development as a wrestler. While genetics definitely play a role in her progression, Charlotte is a talented athlete on her own as a two-time state champion in volleyball. She has advanced to the point where her match this spring against Natalya for the vacant NXT Womens Championship was a show-stealer, possibly the best womens match in WWE/NXT this year. And all of this has come with just two years in the business. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_2TMPY0_PU At some point in the next year, Charlotte will make her way to WWE and hopefully help revitalize a Divas division that needs a shot in the arm of wrestling to counteract the dramatic storylines that currently dominate it. As Flairs daughter, Charlotte has a lot to live up to, but if she continues to grow by leaps and bounds, shell live up to her family name and could elevate WWE womens wrestling with her.
