Jim Ross Says Charlotte Flair Is The Hulk Hogan of Women’s Wrestling

In an interview with Bleacher Report, Jim Ross had high praise for Charlotte Flair, calling her the Hulk Hogan of women’s wrestling. Here are highlights:

On Charlotte Flair: “Charlotte Flair is the Hulk Hogan of women’s wrestling. She’s the present and the future.”

On NJPW expanding to the US: “The key to it is talent and television. In that order. Talent is everything. … You can’t grow that brand to the level they want to grow it in North America off the New Japan World digital channel. It won’t work. You’re not there yet.”

On WWE signing Ronda Rousey: “It was just a brilliant move by WWE to sign Ronda Rousey. I’ve had people stop in airports when I’m wearing my black hat to say ‘hi.’ Now they want to talk about what I think about Ronda Rousey signing with WWE. That’s worth a lot of money, man.”

On AJ Styles vs. Shinsuke Nakamura: “They have incredible, incredible chemistry. I have extremely high expectations for that. I hope people come out of that and say, ‘My God, I didn’t know Nakamura was that good. I didn’t know Nakamura is that physical.’ AJ Styles, in my view, is the top in-ring performer in the business right now.”
