Below are some highlights from the interview:
On facing Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania 34:
“I hope that’s the main event of WrestleMania,” she told ESPN. “That’s my dream. I hope we can make it happen. She really opened the doors for a lot of women. Having that opportunity would be huge. I don’t know what her goals are, but it’s just cool that she wants to be a part of our world.”
On other UFC stars coming to WWE:
“It’s exciting to know that there could be a crossover,” Flair said. “We see it with the men all the time and it’s such a big attraction. I want to be an attraction for the WWE as a female and I think having those women be a part of the company in some kind of storyline makes the women an attraction. Were we an attraction at WrestleMania 32? Yes, but Brock Lesnar, he’s an attraction. I want to be that and with Ronda Rousey or Cyborg. I think that would be exciting.”
On her father, Ric Flair’s health:
“He’s good. He went home last week,” she said. “I’d say a couple of positive things came out of it. I had to take two weeks off, which is the longest I’ve taken off since I’ve started. So I was able to slow down and realize it’s a marathon, not a sprint. Having that time with my dad was so great and it also made my dad realize that he’s 68. He has to slow down. They really did tell us that he wasn’t going to make it. That was so hard. They gave him a 20 percent chance and we said our goodbyes and then he made out of surgery and every day, he slowly got better.”
