WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Charlotte Flair has also announced her spot in the Royal Rumble 2021 Match for the female division. As published in a video on WWE YouTube channel, Sarah Schreiber interviewed Flair and asked her what her advice would be for the other female Superstars in the 30-Woman Royal Rumble Match.

“Sarah, the advice I’d give to the women is, don’t listen to the critics,” Flair said. “Last year I wasn’t a favorite to win and you know what I did? I defied the odds and I won the Royal Rumble in 2020, and that’s why I’m doing to declare myself for the 2021 Royal Rumble, and defy the odds again.”

Nia Jax is the only other female Superstar confirmed for Royal Rumble 2021 by WWE while Flair will be seen making her third appearance in the Rumble match.
