Kurt Angle must be pleased to see Charlotte Flair back on TV, given that he considers Flair the best wrestler in the world.

Flair returned to WWE programming during this week’s episode of SmackDown and confronted WWE Women’s Champion Asuka.

Speaking during his “Kurt Angle podcast,” the Olympian was asked about his favorite women in wrestling today. He said,

“(Mercedes Moné) is a good one to pick. That would be my favorite female (outside of WWE). Listen, I love Charlotte Flair. I think she’s the best of all time. I actually think she’s the best wrestler in the world overall, I really do.

“I think Charlotte Flair has had more consistent five-star matches than any other person. She is really, really good. But Sasha Banks, Mercedes, she’s awesome too.”

Flair will challenge Asuka for the WWE Women’s Championship in three weeks on SmackDown on FOX.
