WWE has announced that Charlotte Flair is out of action indefinitely. The company is citing injuries she sustained at WrestleMania Backlash.
Flair put the SmackDown Women’s Championship on the line against Ronda Rousey in an “I Quit” match at WWE’s latest premium live event.
It was a very physical match that included kendo sticks, chairs, and a brawl in the crowd. Ultimately, Rousey forced her opponent to say “I Quit” with an armbar, utilizing a chair as leverage.
Charlotte Flair’s Time Off
For those wondering, Charlotte’s “injuries” are part of a storyline to write her off television.
Charlotte is taking scheduled time off to prepare for her wedding to AEW star Andrade El Idolo. The wedding takes place later this year. The two have been together since 2019.
The wedding planning, the ceremony itself and the honeymoon will keep Charlotte on the sidelines, but don’t expect this to be the end of “The Queen.”
Charlotte Flair has not ben shy about her longterm goals inside the squared circle. She recently expressed her desire to surpass her father’s record for the most world title reigns. She’s held the Women’s world title 13 times. That is three shy of her father’s world title record of 16.
