Charlotte Flair had been out of action for a long period of time. She has been sidelined from performing in the ring since December 2023. Ever since she had injured her ACL, MCL, and meniscus in one match, fans have been awaiting her return. The WWE Women’s division has become more stacked since then. There are more championships to compete for as well now.
There was no update on when she would return until last night. During the latest episode of SmackDown, WWE shared a video of Charlotte. Flair spoke about how being arrogant and confident, and she added that she knows exactly who she is. She claims herself to be the GOAT of the women’s division.
During the video, she has officially announced herself for the Royal Rumble match. She even repeated the lines that her father, Ric Flair, spoke before he won the Royal Rumble match in 1992. Charlotte mentioned that she would be entering the match with a smile on her face and a tear in her eye.
The 14-time women’s champion will be looking to make a grand return to the ring. With this announcement, she looks like the favorite to win the Rumble match at the moment. While multiple members of the WWE Universe are happy to see her again, they feel that the company should have kept it a secret instead of announcing it.
