WWE News: Charlotte Flair upset over not competing at Royal Rumble match

WWE women superstars continue to be a part of history-making matches with the Women’s Royal Rumble contest took place on this past Sunday.

Previously, the female athletes have competed in numerous gimmick matches like Tables, Falls Count Anywhere, Money in the Bank Ladder or Hell in a Cell matches.

This time around, they took part in the prestigious battle royal to get a chance to challenge a champion of their own choice at Wrestlemania.

Besides this opportunity, it was a dream of every female superstar’s dream to involve in this match and be part of the history.

While filling up this match, WWE definitely needed numerous names from both Raw, Smackdown and NXT. But, the tradition of the match does not include a champion as she would wait for the challenger following the match.

So, the number one performer in the female locker room did not get the chance to compete at this Royal Rumble. We are talking about Charlotte Flair who is the current Smackdown women’s champion and hence was not be able to compete in the first-ever Rumble match. She had defended the title successfully against Natalya and looks forward to defending it against another woman in the near future.

The Queen is even quite confident that she will be able to retain her championship until Wrestlemania 34 so that she can feature in the championship match on that night.

However, she could contain her frustration for not being able to be a part of the Rumble match in an interview with Planeta Wrestling,

“I’m very torn. My competitive nature wants to be a part of this first-ever Royal Rumble match, this historic moment. But I do know that I am a part of the evolution that got us to where we are today in making the first ever Royal Rumble match possible. But secondly, I am honoured knowing that I’m still a part of this excitement in the field of the rumble match, knowing that who wins the Royal Rumble match will be facing me and going head to head at WrestleMania 34.”

Charlotte also alluded to the fact that she is expecting a plethora of surprising names from the pro-wrestling industry as well as the UFC to show up on that night.

Going by the words of the champ, it is certain that WWE will leave no stone unturned to make this match a success.
