A special moment.

Ric Flair made a surprise return to WWE last night, sharing an emotional moment with daughter Charlotte after her title win on Smackdown.

Charlotte, real name Ashley Fliehr, claimed a fifth women's championship win when she made long-time rival Natalya, niece of the great Bret Hart, tap out to her Figure Eight submission - with the victory meaning she will take on Raw's Alexa Bliss in a battle of the champions at Survivor Series.

And given her father's recent health scare, it was a particularly emotional affair for Charlotte, who addressed her 16-time champion Dad in a post-match promo following her hometown title win.


But much to the surprise of the 31-year old, and the fans in Charlotte, North Carolina, the Nature Boy's music hit as she headed up the ramp, and the two embraced.

The two-time WWE Hall of Famer was on the brink of death not too long ago but has made a remarkable recovery. And he was never going to miss yet another big moment in his daughter's glittering career, as per the man himself.

Here's how the rest of social media reacted:

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
