She is the daughter of former professional wrestler Ric Flair and the sister of David Flair and Reid Flair. In 2014, she was named Rookie of the Year by Pro Wrestling Illustrated.
Early life
Fliehr was born in Charlotte, North Carolina to Ric Flair and his then-wife Elizabeth. She has an older half-sister, Megan, and an older half-brother, David, while her younger brother Reid died in March 2013. Fliehr holds two NCHSAA 4 A-State championships for volleyball during her time at Providence High School, including being a team captain and player of the year from 2004–2005. She attended Appalachian State University in Boone, North Carolina before transferring to North Carolina State University, where she graduated with a Bachelor of Science in public relations in Spring 2008. Fliehr was a certified personal trainer prior to becoming a wrestler.[2]
Professional wrestling career
WWE
NXT (2012–2015)
On May 17, 2012, Fliehr signed a developmental contract with WWE, and was assigned to their developmental territory, WWE NXT.[8] She adopted the ring name Charlotte, and had her first televised match on the July 17, 2013, episode of NXT, where she was defeated by Bayley.[9]
In late 2013, Charlotte formed a tag team with Bayley, and the two defeated Aksana and Cameron on the September 4 episode of NXT.[10] On the October 10 episode of NXT, Bayley accompanied Charlotte to a match against Santana Garrett, which she won, and during the match, the "BFFs (Beautiful, Fierce Females)" (Summer Rae and Sasha Banks) came to the ring and attempted to convince Bayley to join them, to Charlotte's annoyance.[11] However, on the November 13 episode of NXT, Charlotte attacked Bayley and joined the BFFs, establishing herself as a villainess in the process.[12][13]
After a two–month absence due to an injury, Charlotte returned, on the January 8, 2014, episode of NXT, and began accompanying Rae and Banks to their matches.[14][15][16] In February, Charlotte confronted NXT Women's Champion Paige during an interview with Renee Young, announcing herself as her next challenger.[17][18] Following Rae's elevation to WWE's main roster, Charlotte and Banks went on to feud with Bayley, who formed an alliance with Natalya. On the March 27 episode of NXT, Charlotte was defeated by Natalya by disqualification after Banks interfered.[19] The feud between Charlotte and Paige ended on the April 24 episode of NXT, when Charlotte and Banks defeated Emma and Paige, with Charlotte scoring the pinfall over Paige.
In early–May, Charlotte competed in the tournament for the vacant NXT Women's Championship, defeating Emma in the first round, Alexa Bliss in the semi–finals, and Natalya in the final at NXT TakeOver, to win the NXT Women's Championship for the first time.[20] After a four–month absence from the show, Summer Rae returned on the June 6 episode of NXT, distracting Bayley and allowing Charlotte to defeat her. After the match, The BFFs attempted to attack Bayley, only to be chased away by Emma and the returning Paige.[21] The altercation prompted a six-woman tag team match on the June 12 episode of NXT, which The BFFs lost after Bayley pinned Charlotte.[22] On the July 3 episode of NXT, Charlotte got a measure of retribution over Bayley in a tag team match, where she and Banks defeated Bayley and Becky Lynch. After the match, Charlotte left Banks to get attacked by Bayley, with Banks officially disbanding the BFFs in a backstage segment later that night.[23]
On the July 24 episode of NXT, Charlotte successfully defended her championship against Summer Rae.[24] Charlotte then went on to defeat Bayley at NXT TakeOver: Fatal 4-Way to retain the championship. After the match, she stopped Banks from attacking Bayley afterwards,[25] and after defeating Bayley in a rematch on October 2, she raised Bayley's arm before they shared a hug and shook hands.[26] Following this, Charlotte and Bayley feuded with Banks and her partner Becky Lynch throughout the following several weeks.[27] Charlotte made her first appearance on WWE's main roster on the Slammy Awards special episode of Raw on December 8, where she lost to Natalya in a non-title match.[28] Charlotte retained her championship against Banks at NXT TakeOver: R Evolution on December 11,[29] and in rematches that took place on the December 25[30] and the January 21, 2015 episodes of NXT, respectively.[31] At NXT TakeOver: Rival, Charlotte lost the championship to Banks in a fatal four-way match that also involved Bayley and Becky Lynch, ending her reign at 258 days.[32] She failed to regain the championship in a rematch against Banks that took place on the March 4 episode of NXT.[33]
At NXT TakeOver: Unstoppable on May 20, Charlotte teamed up with Bayley to defeat Emma and Dana Brooke.[34] After defeating Emma and Brooke again on the July 8 episode of NXT, this time teaming with her rival Sasha Banks, Charlotte challenged Banks to an NXT Women's Championship match, which Banks accepted.[35] They had their championship match the following week on the July 15 episode of NXT, in which Banks retained the championship. Afterwards, the two shared a hug and Banks raised Charlotte's hand as a sign of respect.[36]
Divas Champion (2015–present)
Charlotte made her official début on the main roster on the July 13, 2015 episode of Raw along with Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch, after Stephanie McMahon called for a "revolution" in the WWE Divas division and while Charlotte and Lynch allied with Paige, who was feuding with Team Bella (Alicia Fox and Brie and Nikki Bella), Banks allied with Tamina and Naomi and a brawl between the three teams started.[37] The trio of Charlotte, Lynch and Paige, which was originally dubbed the "Submission Sorority", was renamed to "Team PCB", after the first–name initials of each wrestler.[38] In her pay–per–view début, on July 19, at Battleground, Charlotte defeated Banks and Brie Bella in a triple–threat match.[39][40][41] The three teams would ultimately face off at SummerSlam in a three team elimination match, which PCB won after Lynch pinned Brie Bella.[42]
On the August 31 episode of Raw, Charlotte overcame fellow PCB members' records in the first ever "Divas Beat the Clock challenge", and was named the new number one contender to Nikki Bella's Divas Championship.[43] Her title match with Nikki, initially advertised for Night of Champions,[44] took place on the September 14 episode of Raw, so Charlotte could stop Bella from surpassing AJ Lee's record and becoming the new longest–reigning Divas Champion.[45] Charlotte won the match by disqualification, but not the title, since Brie and Nikki switched places and Charlotte pinned Brie.[46] On September 20, at Night of Champions, Charlotte received a rematch, where she defeated Nikki to win the Divas Championship for the first time.[47] During Charlotte's celebration, the following night on Raw, Paige cut a worked shoot promo and turned on her partners, berating them and the Divas division.[48] Throughout October, Paige appeared to have reconciled with Lynch and Charlotte,[49][50] only to attack them and solidify her heel turn,[51] the night after Charlotte successfully retained her championship against Nikki Bella at Hell in a Cell.[52] Charlotte successfully defended her title against Paige, on three different occasions, at Survivor Series, on November 22,[53][54][55][56][57] in a rematch, the following night on Raw,[58] and at TLC, on December 13.[59]
On the November 30 episode of Raw, Charlotte began displaying villainous traits, after defeating Becky Lynch by feigning a leg injury, followed by a distraction provided by her father.[60] Throughout December, the relationship between Charlotte and Lynch continued to strain,[61][62][63][64][65] and after losing to her on the January 4, 2016 episode Raw, Charlotte attacked her and solidified her heel turn.[66][67] Charlotte successfully retained the Divas Championship against Lynch, with help from her father, three days later on SmackDown,[68] and at the Royal Rumble on January 24.[69] On the February 1 episode of Raw, after Charlotte lost to Brie Bella in a non–title match,[70] the two competed again at Fastlane, on February 21, where Charlotte once again prevailed.[71]
Personal life
Fliehr married Thomas Latimer, better known by his ring name Bram, who currently works for Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), in 2013.[72] Their divorce was finalized on October 29, 2015, in the state of Florida.[73]
Fliehr was arrested on September 5, 2008 in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, for assaulting a police officer after a fight involving Fliehr, her then–partner Riki Johnson, and her father. She pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 45 days in jail, which was suspended to supervised probation and a $200 fine.[74]
