Charlotte Flair has nothing but praise for fellow WWE veteran Naomi.

The 15-year veteran’s resurgence in WWE has been one of the most talked-about storylines of 2025. After returning to the spotlight, she climbed her way into the history books once again by winning the Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match on Saturday, June 7, at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California. She defeated Alexa Bliss, Giulia, Rhea Ripley, Roxanne Perez, and Stephanie Vaquer to win the coveted briefcase containing the precious contract.

Charlotte Flair Shows Admiration for Naomi

Speaking on the latest episode of The Nikki & Brie Show, Charlotte Flair praised Naomi’s current WWE run, calling it the best of her career. With a clear tone of admiration, The Queen said,

“She’s salt of the earth… She’s in her best era.” [26:32 – 26:50] High praise coming from one of the most decorated female superstars of all time.

Naomi’s Money in the Bank win cemented her as a top contender in the WWE women’s division and sparked immediate speculation over when she’d cash in the coveted briefcase. Fans didn’t have to wait long. Naomi attempted to cash in her contract on the June 26 edition of SmackDown in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

It was during a brutal Last Woman Standing match between Tiffany Stratton and Nia Jax. It was a gutsy move, but unfortunately, it didn’t go her way. The attempt failed, but the effort wasn’t lost on Flair or the WWE Universe.

Flair’s comments highlight the evolution of Naomi’s game not just in the ring, but in how she carries herself as a veteran performer. From her in-ring performance to her timing, presence, and connection with the crowd, Naomi has found a gear many believe she hadn’t fully tapped into before.
