Charlotte Flair and Tiffany Stratton engaged in a heated war of words a few weeks ago during a split-screen promo. The Queen allegedly went off script, putting The Buff Barbie in an awkward spot. As the exchange continued, Flair delivered some sharp remarks that completely shut down Stratton, leaving the WWE Women’s Champion without a response.
Speaking to The Daily Mail, the former Women’s Champion defended her approach, stating that she did exactly what she set out to do. The Queen explained that Stratton wanted real competition—she wanted to go up against the legendary Charlotte Flair—and that’s exactly what she got during the split-screen promo.
It’s great that you said ‘teach her a lesson’ – I did not look at it as a lesson. I looked at it as I am Charlotte Flair. Do you want me to be less than? This is what you wanted, right? This is who you want to be like, this is your idol.

Flair made it clear that she can’t be anything less than her best, and if The Buff Barbie wants to stand on her level, she needs to step up. As for those who believe she buried the 25-year-old during the promo, The Queen remains unapologetic. Furthermore, the two-time Royal Rumble winner confidently declared that at WrestleMania, she will defeat Stratton—because the grand stage is her domain.

Since the former Women’s Champion handpicked Tiffany Stratton as her WrestleMania opponent, she has undeniably outshone the rising star. Fans have begun questioning Triple H’s booking, as it seemingly undermines The Center of the Universe. With tensions running high, all eyes are on Las Vegas to see how this highly anticipated showdown unfolds.
Charlotte Flair commented on her divorce from Andrade
Charlotte Flair and Andrade’s divorce came to public light following The Queen’s Royal Rumble victory, shocking fans who had seen the couple enjoying a holiday together just last year. While Andrade shared a photo with his son after the split, Flair remained silent—until now. The former Women’s Champion has finally addressed her divorce, breaking her silence on the matter.
Speaking to Sherri Shepherd, Flair admitted that she was initially scared of how fans and the media would react to her divorce. She revealed feeling disappointed in herself for another failed relationship, fearing inevitable comparisons to her father. However, once the news broke, she embraced her reality, choosing to be unapologetically herself throughout the process.
Everything that I had been scared of hit that day, and I was like ‘the fight’s over’. I have nothing to fight. This is me, this is who I am, I’m standing in my worth, and people can have their opinions.

Moreover, the 38-year-old opened up about the emotional journey of recovering from this phase in her life. However, she viewed it as a much-needed push to rediscover her self-worth. The Queen declared that she is on a comeback story, determined to rise stronger than ever. In a powerful statement, Flair acknowledged that Charlotte has already achieved everything, but Ashley is coming back for it all.
Could Charlotte Flair become the WWE Women’s Champion at WrestleMania 41?
Charlotte Flair is set to compete in her eighth WrestleMania in less than three weeks. The Queen has long referred to The Show of Shows as her “domain” and remains confident that she will leave Las Vegas as the new WWE Women’s Champion. However, standing in her way is the rising star Tiffany Stratton, who is preparing for her first-ever WrestleMania moment.
The former Women’s Champion holds a 4-3 record at The Showcase of Immortals, having competed in a title match at every WrestleMania she has appeared in. This track record once again puts her in a strong position heading into this year’s event.
Moreover, the 38-year-old has a history of crushing rookies’ WrestleMania dreams, having defeated stars like Rhea Ripley, Asuka, Becky Lynch, and Sasha Banks in their Mania debuts. Additionally, Flair has only been pinned once in singles competition at WrestleMania. Therefore, it is highly likely The Queen could be making history by becoming a 15-time Women’s Champion in WWE at WrestleMania.
