Booker T Thinks Top WWE Star Will Be Gone Within Five Years
Booker T things one of the biggest stars in WWE will probably be doing things other than wrestling in the next five years.
When it comes to the WWE life, there’s no telling how long somebody is going to keep wrestling no matter how big of a star they are. Everybody moves on eventually, even when you’re at the top like The Rock, John Cena, Batista and so many others.
In terms of women’s wrestlers, nobody has won more championships than Charlotte Flair, who is a 14-time Women’s Champion on WWE’s main roster since she was called up from NXT in the summer of 2015.
At the age of 37, Charlotte Flair has done it all in WWE and she recently started filming a movie as well. Whether that becomes her future main career instead of wrestling is unknown, but two-time WWE Hall of Famer Booker T thinks she’ll move away from wrestling within the next five years.

Recently on his Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T explained why he thinks Charlotte is on to even bigger things in the future.
“She’s the star of the show. She knows it. Everybody else knows it. Fall in line. It’s the best thing going today. You don’t have to like it, but you better learn to love it … It’s only fitting. She’s the best at what she does, man. Wrestling is literally going to be something in her rearview mirror in the next five years, just because there’s so much more out there for her right now. And I think she knows that, too.”
“I think she wants more. This wrestling thing for Charlotte Flair has been a pit stop [or] a bump in the road. She got the world in the palm of her hand. She could do whatever she wants.”
Next up for Charlotte Flair as far as title shots go is a big match against the WWE Women’s Champion Asuka on the June 30th edition of Smackdown in London, England. If Charlotte wins that, it will be her 15th World Title win, which would put her just one behind her father Ric Flair and John Cena in terms of World Title wins.
