Charlotte Flair On The Mae Young Classic, Working With Ladders, Alexa Bliss

Charlotte Flair recently spoke to USA Today’s “For The Win” section. Charlotte discussed the women’s Money in the Bank ladder match tomorrow night, the May Young Classic and Alexa Bliss’ success on RAW. Here are some highlights from the interview:

Appearing on Talking Smack:

“I like being on Talking Smack because it’s another opportunity to voice my opinion without being in the ring. There are subjects you have to touch base on, but you can go on and you never know what direction the conversation will turn. There’s more freedom.”

Thoughts on Alexa Bliss’ success on RAW:

“I think when one girl does well, we all do well. I couldn’t be more proud of her. It’s another showcase of what NXT does for girls because she’s NXT homegrown.”

The Mae Young Classic’s impact on women’s wrestling:

“It adds more depth and provides more exposure. It will be an opportunity to talk about Mae Young’s history and what she accomplished a bit more. It will get the main roster girls down to NXT to feel the excitement of the tournament. The women have been so busy in the last year that the girls who came from NXT haven’t had the chance to get back to Orlando and see all the buzz about Asuka and what’s happening. I’m excited to just watch the tournament and I hope I can get down there in person. I think it will be awesome.”

 

MITB ladder match:

“Even though we’ve all been able to pick it up and feel what it’s like in person, they are all different sizes and it’s much different trying to use it when you have 15,000 people watching. It’s way different being in front of an audience and when your adrenaline is flowing in that moment. I really don’t know what to expect, to be honest.”
