Charlotte Flair Confirms Reason For Missing WWE TV Last Week, Comments On ‘Ric Flair Drip’ Video, Her Career Coming Full Circle

Charlotte Flair recently spoke with Robbie Fox for Barstool Sports; you can read some transcribed highlights (transcription credit to Bill Pritchard for Wrestlezone.com) below:

Charlotte comments on being held off of WWE TV last week due to dental surgery: 

I’m good! It was the worst time of year.

They just kept me off of TV because it was so swollen, and I was talking funny because of the stitches. I was like thank you — I mean they cleared me to wrestle—but I looked a mess. I’ll be back next week.

Charlotte Flair Reportedly Injured; WWE Hosting New Fan Vote For Mixed Match Challenge Replacement

Charlotte comments on her WWE Mixed Match Challenge experience: 

I think the [WWE] Mixed Match Challenge has been great, and for me, I feel like on Smackdown or RAW I’m always so serious, and I’ve been a babyface since I switched to Smackdown. I’ve been a little more playful, but being on Mixed Match Challenge, with Bobby [Roode] bringing out a different side of me, and having the opportunity to face Lana and Rusev, Titus Worldwide; it was so much fun. I think I’d like to have a program like that on Smackdown after Wrestlemania eventually.

Charlotte comments on her father appearing in the ‘Ric Flair Drip’ video: 

How do you think I feel about this? He’s like texting me like ‘Honey, Offset is texting me’ because now they are like buddies, and he’s texting him emojis because he’ll text me like ten emojis. I’m like ‘Dad, why are you texting him emojis?’ He is loving life, I guess they have matching big gold chains. It’s my Dad, in a robe, and gold and diamonds, and when my Dad took me to the dentist last week he had in on, and I’m like ‘Aww, I can’t even look at you right now.’

Charlotte talks about her career coming full circle: 

I wish I could explain to people how I felt being a part of Triple H’s [Wrestlemania 30] entrance. How nervous I was, I mean I’m literally just standing there with a mask on. I was shaking, and even being out there, being overwhelmed by the rush of the crowd, the moment, it’s Triple H’s entrance. I just couldn’t picture myself… how do men and women perform in front of 80, 90, or 100,000 people? So, obviously we got to two years later at Wrestlemania 32, but knowing that I have been in that arena before as part of a Wrestlemania entrance, but like you said in one of the biggest matches, it’s just crazy how life comes full circle. If you work really hard, you never know where life will take you. I definitely didn’t see my life—I have no idea where my career was going to go. I’m just very thankful and fortunate at where I am today.
