Charlotte Flair will defend the WWE SmackDown Women’s Championship against Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania Goes Hollywood this April.
This is a rematch from WrestleMania 36, where Flair defeated Ripley to win the NXT Women’s Championship.
While speaking with Kevin Raphaël and Pat Laprade on Les anti-pods de la lutte, Flair was asked about whether she was striving for a main event spot or wherever they put her on the card she’s okay with. This year’s show is a two-night event with the belief that Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns will defend against Cody Rhodes in the headliner of night two.
“No, Rhea and I are main event quality. It’s a main event story, and I want to be in the main event with her because I know it’s going to be that good,” Flair stated.
Flair was also asked what it’s like working with Triple H compared to Vince McMahon.
“I think the exact same way. Whoever is in charge, I want to make them proud. I want to do my best,” Flair stated. “When I creatively feel…I see something different, then explain this to me. I don’t look at it any differently. My job as a performer is just to do the best job possible right. I think a lot of people see it differently, but for me, whoever is in charge, that’s who you want to make happy or do a good job for. I’ve known Hunter for so long, from not being in the company to being in the company to being his NXT Champion to his SmackDown Women’s Champion. I’m more familiar with him than Vince because I’ve known him longer. Being a talent and doing a great job shouldn’t change.”
