Charlotte Flair suffered a significant injury in her singles match against Damage CTRL’s Asuka on the Tribute to the Troops edition of SmackDown on December 8th. She went under the knife, and now The Queen is on her way back to reclaim her throne.
Charlotte Flair Putting In The Work After Surgery
Charlotte Flair is expected to be out of action for 9 months after her knee surgery. Of course, that is a projection and Flair would obviously like to see a return much sooner than that.
Many people might want to take it easy after surgery, but Charlotte Flair is in a league of her own. The shoo-in WWE Hall of Famer didn’t wait around at all before jumping right into physical therapy.
Flair updated her social media to show off her progress. She is already on the treadmill, which she was happy to showcase on her Instagram story.

How Charlotte Flair Was Injured
The injury occurred when Flair attempted her signature moonsault outside the ring towards Asuka. The match was then ended abruptly due to interference by Bayley, leading to Flair’s defeat. Despite her injury, Flair still finished the match.
Unfortunately, Flair suffered multiple knee injuries during the incident, including tears to her ACL, MCL, and meniscus.
Charlotte Flair was spotted on crutches at the CMLL event after her injury. That was before her surgery, but now she is totally focused on making a return to the ring.
