WWE: Charlotte Flair in the Queen and Queen match against Zelina Vega

WWE Superstar Charlotte Flair has quashed the idea of ​​clashing with Zelina Vega over the title Queen.

The SmackDown Women’s Champion has been using this moniker for years now, but Vega has taken it and made it a major part of her personality. after winning the inaugural Queen’s Crown tournament in Saudi Arabia two months ago.

To speak exclusively for Metro.co.uk, Charlotte dismissed the notion of a crown-centric couple-story as she argued: ‘I don’t think I need to compete for the crown, sorry.

‘I don’t think I need a crown to be called Queen. I am the queen. It’s silly for me. [laughs] No offense!’

She acknowledged the idea of ​​entering the ring with Zelina’s appeal, but she didn’t give much thought to anything other than that.

‘I mean, maybe facing Zelina, but for a Queen and Queen focused match? Like, I’m the Queen of them all – no throne,’ she insisted. “I don’t get it – she has a long way to go to be her… I don’t know what you say? I always wear my invisible crown. ‘

Even so, Charlotte who became got into a feud with Toni Storm since we spoke – has heaped praise on many rising stars, while pointing out some wrestlers as dream opponents.

‘I just had a match against Shotzi – it was amazing. Actually, the fan reaction is what gets me so excited. They are so hungry to see new talent,’ she laughs, clearly agreeing with this view.

‘I had a chance to face Doudrop, it was amazing. I know Zelina and I will face each other on the road. Liv Morgan. ‘

She also points to NXT and the need to develop future stars there, with people who like Rhea Ripley and Bianca Belair both made their way to the main roster through their black and gold branding.

‘It’s just a matter of bringing new people up from NXT and letting the audience know them. It just takes time. And it takes a return to tours and live events, to do that,’ she explained.

‘I’m so proud of Rhea Ripey and Bianca Belair. They have come a long way, and they will only go further. I truly believe that Rhea is the future face of the women’s team. ‘
