Charlotte Flair is currently weighing her options for WrestleMania following her recent Royal Rumble victory. To help her decision, the 38-year-old recently made an appearance on the latest episode of SmackDown. She mentioned how she had gone to Raw to see Rhea Ripley and NXT to see Giulia. Now, she wanted to talk with Tiffany Stratton.

The WWE Women’s Champion obliged and walked out to meet her potential challenger. Tiffany Stratton actually had some praise for Flair before the latter started talking down to her. The Queen said that she saw the Buff Barbie as a child who was begging to become a star at WrestleMania. Furthermore, she asked the former Ms. Money in the Bank to get down on her knees and beg the 14x Champion to choose her.

Stratton vs. Flair is the most likely outcome for WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas. Reports have stated that WWE has been planning this match since way before the Nature Girl won the Rumble. This would be a true clash of generations, and the two superstars could definitely put on a stellar match. Furthermore, it could be a great way to pass down the torch to the rising superstar.

A week before the 2025 Royal Rumble, WWE had announced that Flair would be making her return to WWE during the Women’s Rumble match after spending more than a year on the shelf. She entered the match at #27 and won the match after spending about 15 minutes in the ring. Now, fans cannot wait to see her put on an incredible match at WrestleMania like she is known to do.

Tommy Dreamer reacts to Charlotte Flair’s heartfelt promo being booed on the latest episode of Raw

Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Tommy Dreamer recently gave his opinion on Charlotte Flair getting booed during the latest episode of Raw. He mentioned how she went out there to cut a babyface promo, and commended her for being good enough to be able to adapt to the reaction. However, he believed that her telling the crowd that they did not understand made them turn on her even harder.

Charlotte Flair made an appearance on the latest episode of Raw to confront Rhea Ripley in order to decide her WrestleMania opponent. She went to cut a promo during the episode. However, things definitely did not go the way she expected them to. She talked about how spending the past year on the shelf broke her physically and mentally.

I’ll tell you specifically where they turned, when she said, ‘No, you don’t understand.’ Once that happened, Cleveland turned on her. You cannot tell people they don’t understand something because you’re then in an argument with them and then they’re going to jump all over you.

Now, the WWE Universe has been less than keen to see the 2x Royal Rumble winner as a babyface. Fans opine that she works much better as a heel. Thus, they did not care much for her struggles and decided to rain down boos on the inaugural NXT Women’s Champion.
