Charlotte Flair recently spoke with the Los Angeles Times while promoting her new book “Second Nature”, which is in stores now:
Charlotte Flair shares her advice for aspiring female wrestlers:
First and foremost, go to school, go to college and get your education. Because I am living proof that it doesn’t really matter how old you are when you start. I started very late in the game and it hasn’t changed my path to success. Secondly, if it is something you are still passionate about after college, then get in contact with the WWE performance center and find out when their tryouts are. Go to a tryout and see what you need to work on. But when you do go, know it is more about showing off who you are as a person and your personality and are you coachable versus “Hey, I’ve got all these moves and I’m athletic!
Charlotte talks about devoting part of her book to Dusty Rhodes, her relationship with him:
I feel as if Dusty was Dusty, on and off camera. The ultimate babyface. He loved his kids more than anything, and he was a family man.
Charlotte on not being ‘The Queen’ on Smackdown right now, if it’s better being a bad guy:
I do miss the evil queen, but I think that my on-camera relationship with Becky is allowing the audience to see a softer side of the queen. For two years I was so intense and stern and always in the title picture. I think now the audience gets to take a breath of fresh air with me, so when I do turn into the evil queen again, they are ready for it. It’s a nice break right now for my character and for the audience.
