I spoke with Charlotte today for the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review on a number of topics. Here’s some highlights:
On balancing using the Ric Flair gimmick and creating her own identity:
Professionally, I think that’s what people don’t like about the Charlotte characters is she’s Ric Flair’s daughter. As of right now, where the character is the bragging rights of it’s in my bloods adds to it. On a personal level, I’m damned if I do, damned if I don’t. If people can’t look pass my last name and see my athletic ability then I guess I can’t win everyone over.
On Women having a main event match soon in WWE:
We’ve had contract signings for RAW which was huge. We were one of the main events for WrestleMania with the triple threat. I have no doubt in the next couple months we’ll main event a pay-per-view.
Charlotte also talked about Internet reports about her prior to getting called up, working with Bayley & Sasha at WWE Battleground and more in the video below:
