Ric Flair Criticizes Tiffany Stratton’s WWE Segment Mocking Charlotte’s Divorces

Ric Flair expressed strong disapproval of Tiffany Stratton's remarks about his daughter Charlotte Flair's three divorces during a WWE SmackDown segment leading up to WrestleMania 41, calling the comments the "cheapest sh*t" he had ever heard and said he was embarrassed for Stratton. He emphasized that the remarks were hurtful, stating that if they were unscripted (a shoot), that would be even worse because such personal attacks should not be joked about. Charlotte Flair herself revealed that the promo "rocked her legit" and was genuinely devastating, though she acknowledged it increased anticipation for their match. The exchange included Stratton referencing Charlotte's "0-3 record at marriages," to which Charlotte responded by mentioning Stratton's real-life boyfriend Ludwig Kaiser being in her DMs. Ric Flair's comments came during an appearance on The Ariel Helwani Show, where he chose not to elaborate further to avoid affecting anything related to the situation. Despite the controversy, Stratton retained the WWE Women’s Championship against Charlotte at WrestleMania 41.
