Charlotte Flair spent months sitting on the sidelines in 2022, but she finally made her long awaited return during the final SmackDown of the year back in December. Flair didn’t just return to TV, but she returned to the ring when she challenged Ronda Rousey to an impromptu title match and won the SmackDown Women’s Championship.
During a recent appearance on Out of Character with Ryan Satin the current SmackDown Women’s Champion explained that she didn’t know she would be winning the title until she showed up to the arena.
“I didn’t find out I was winning the title until I got there. I didn’t have gear with me. My amazing cleaning lady brought me my gear. I should have known better. I’m coming to a wrestling show, I just brought my outfit. I thought it was just going to be a walkout surprise because I had been gone for so long, I really didn’t need to be any major fireworks, but when I got there they were like, ‘You need your gear.’ I got the call at maybe 5ish that I needed gear, right before I got to the arena. She got to the arena around 7, 7:15.”
Rhea Ripley won the women’s Royal Rumble match over the weekend and she announced on Raw this week that she’s planning to challenge Charlotte Flair for the SmackDown Women’s Championship at WrestleMania 39 in April. Stay tuned for updates.
