Charlotte Flair Reflects on Her WWE Return at Royal Rumble 2025

In 2025, Charlotte Flair made her return to WWE during the Royal Rumble after recovering from a torn ACL, MCL, and meniscus. She eliminated Roxanne Perez to win the event and subsequently challenged Tiffany Stratton for the WWE Women's Championship at WrestleMania 41, although she did not win the title.

Flair expressed uncertainty about her emotions regarding her return, noting that she had previously enjoyed significant fan support. She had hoped for a surprise comeback at the Royal Rumble and felt nervous about returning after losing weight during her recovery.

Despite her victory at the Royal Rumble, Flair mentioned that it felt like there was limited progression following the win. She indicated that winning the Women's Tag Team Championships with Alexa Bliss felt more fulfilling. Flair is set to compete at SummerSlam for the Interim WWE Women's Championship.
