Ric Flair: I Think That Ultimately Sasha Banks Will End Up Back In The WWE

WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair made an appearance on Busted Open Radio this morning, discussing a range of topics from his daughter Charlotte Flair’s return to the future of Mercedes Mone (formerly Sasha Banks). Flair compared Mone to the legendary Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat.

The conversation began with Charlotte Flair and her potential matches against Rhea Ripley and Sasha Banks. Flair reflected on Charlotte’s past rivalries, stating, “I thought Sasha and Ashley had the best chemistry of all time. I just think the matches that Rhea and Ashley had might have been as good.” He also recalled a memorable cage match featuring Mercedes and Charlotte, saying they were “tearing the joint down.”

Bully Ray offered his perspective on Mone’s current position in AEW, stating, “Yes, Sasha went to AEW where she’s making a considerable amount of money [and] has a considerable amount of money [and] has considerable more freedom than she did in the WWE. She’s positioned at the top but I don’t believe she’s able to be in the ring with anybody who is going to bring the best out of her.”

Flair responded by emphasizing Mone’s confidence. “I look at Sasha [and] she has that mindset that she can do whatever she wants to do because she’s that good. I think that ultimately she’ll end up back in the WWE. If you look at the last 10 years, what Sasha has been able to do and what Ashley has been able to do, and maybe a couple others…name the guys that can stay on top for 10 years. Never take a step back, always in the main event…” Flair cited examples like Randy Orton, John Cena, Jon Moxley, and Seth Rollins as examples of performers who have maintained top-level status for a decade.

Bully Ray then posed the question of whether a Mone vs. Charlotte match in WWE would be bigger than ever. Flair responded emphatically, “Of course…I think the biggest pay-per-view match they could ever have is Ashley and Becky Lynch.” He then jokingly added, “I could fire that up again, round 2. I can fire that up.”

Flair concluded by praising the overall talent within WWE, stating that everyone on the roster is “that good.”
