Charlotte Flair Reveals WWE WrestleMania Match That Escalated Her Career

Charlotte Flair, five times Raw Women’s Champion and five times SmackDown Women’s Champion, is a pioneer for women’s wrestling. She has worked hard to be at the top, and continues to push herself and move the division forward.

During her conversation with Ryan Satin, she spoke about her match with Asuka at WrestleMania. According to her, that match was what it took to take herself to the next level. In fact, she believes using the figure eight on Asuka is a highlight of the match, at least for her.

“It’s not that I like putting her in it, but I really feel that my match with Asuka took me to the next level, when I broke her streak at WrestleMania. She had nothing to prove. And someone who works backstage, who I’m super close to, thought I was going to lose. I was like, ‘I was the underdog?’ Putting Asuka in the figure eight was my favorite.”

The Queen and The Empress did not have long to build that storyline. They had to work within a short span to give the WWE Universe an unforgettable experience, and they did!

“That match is just incredible. The whole story, we only had a two-week build. That one was probably the biggest.”

Finally, she believes that the figure eight is a powerful move. She’s frequently uses it. And every time she used it, she won.

“If I put it on, I’ve usually won with it. No one has gotten out of the bridge. They’ve gotten out of the figure four, but not the figure eight.” H/t Out of character with Ryan Satin
