Riki Johnson’s early life and family background are little known in the media because he only became famous after his relationship with Charlotte.
Flair was married to Riki Johnson from May 2010 to February 2013. According to Second Nature, a collaborative biography of her and her father released in late 2017, she allegedly left Riki Johnson after being the victim of numerous domestic assaults.

She also won the NXT Women’s Championship twice and the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship once, making her a Triple Crown and Grand Slam Champion.
