A section of the WWE Universe is unhappy with the promotion after the latest episode of SmackDown. Charlotte Flair, who is amidst a feud with Bianca Belair, found herself an unlikely ally in the former RAW Women’s Champion to take on current WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions. In their maiden outing together, the experienced wrestlers managed to defeat the champions, earning condemnation from fans.
This has been a recurring theme with Flair, who has received criticism from WWE faithful for her thirst to remain on top always.

Chelsea Green and Sonya Deville became the new Women’s Tag Team champions after defeating Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez on the July 17 episode of RAW. The champs met Bianca Belair backstage and pointed out how she and Charlotte Flair always enjoyed the limelight, unlike them.
Soon after, Charlotte Flair appeared and challenged the duo to a match. She chose Belair as her partner, much to her despair. Even though they were not the smoothest of operators, clearly exposing their ongoing rift, Flair and Belair managed to get the win.

In the closing stages, Belair was set to get the win herself by pinning Green, but Flair hit the current champion with a big boot. She also asked Belair to get out of the ring as she pinned Green. While they managed to win, it is unlikely that the duo would form a partnership, especially given the fact that they will take on one another at SummerSlam in a Triple Threat Match, also involving Asuka.
On the other hand, fans were angry with the outcome of the match.
Fans ask WWE their motive behind Chelsea Green, Sonya Deville’s loss
There is no doubt that Charlotte Flair is one of the biggest names in the WWE women’s division. The 14-time world champion is also one of the most decorated wrestlers of all time. That said, fans wanted to know if it made sense for her to win against the new champions, especially in their first match after winning the gold.
“WHY YALL GOTTA HAVE CHELS AND SONYA LOSE THEIR FIRST MATCH AFTER BECOMING CHAMPS 😭 😭 😭 😭 WHYYYYYYYY 😭 😭,” this fan asked.
Another added, “why are sonya and chelsea losing already ??? what the fck”
Flair has been criticized in the past for her championship-hoarding trait. Minutes after WWE unveiled a new belt for the women’s division, replacing the RAW Women’s Championship, Flair made her comeback and challenged Asuka for it. This didn’t go down well with fans who called her out.

“Charlotte can’t stay in wwe without a title?” this fan comment highlighted the above issue.
Another user also had something similar to say. “Stop trying to push Charlotte. She had her time NEXT,” the comment read.
Meanwhile, this user wondered why the results didn’t go against Belair and Flair, despite the obvious differences between them. “There is NO fu**ing reason the tag champs should lose this. The dissension between Bianca and Charlotte should have been their downfall. This is nonsense,” they wrote.
