Ric Flair Praises MJF, Believes He Could Be The Next Randy Orton

Ric Flair has nothing but good things to say about the AEW World champion.

It’s been no surprise that Flair loves what he sees in MJF, he has mentioned quite a lot that he would love to trade microphone blows with the Salt of the Earth.

During an interview with The Wrestling Classic. Flair’s praise for MJF even included a comparison to a current legend in the business who made his return not that long ago.

“We exchanged pleasantries in the lobby of the hotel. I shook his hand and said, not that it mattered to him, but I think he’s pretty confident in himself. He doesn’t need a pat on the back and that’s what makes him a little bit different. He’s good. I don’t mind telling you, he’s damn good. he’s confident. He’s young. I tried to mainly reinforce to him that I hope he stays at AEW,” he said.

When asked what sets MJF apart, Flair replied, “I like the fact that I think he’s confident and comes across as confident in real life as he comes across with his confidence in the ring. He’s got a great interview, he’s got a great look, he’s worked hard. I think he has the confidence in real life that he portrays on TV and I think the future is unlimited for him. He’s really good. He could be the next Randy Orton. That’s about as high of praise as I can give him.”

Flair has compared his daughter, Charlotte to the female version of the Apex Predator. Flair has also called Orton the #1 guy in the WWE since 2020.
