It appears fans won’t have to watch much longer to see the return of Charlotte Flair.
Flair lost an I Quit match to the current SmackDown Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey at Wrestlemania Backlash this past May. WWE wrote Flair off television with a storyline injury to cover for her taking time off to get married to AEW star Andrade el Idolo.
WWE aired a vignette teasing the return of the former multi-time women’s champions during last Saturday’s Extreme Rules premium live event. This led to fans speculating about her potential return.
In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reported, “Charlotte Flair is scheduled to return soon.”
As of this writing, it’s unclear what WWE’s plans for Flair will be once she does return. She is currently listed as a member of the SmackDown roster so she may continue her feud with Rousey.
Flair did indicate potential plans for her return during an appearance on the WWE’s Most Extreme Moments Countdown special. In August, Flair appeared on Steve Austin’s “Broken Skull Sessions” show.
Andrade previously revealed that her WWE absence was due to personal reasons.
