It was much nastier than how some iconic Japanese wrestlers take a bump!
Charlotte Flair just took a German suplex bump worse than Kota Ibushi and Tetsuya Naito.

Nevertheless, the 14-time women’s champion after the match did a true passing of the torch moment. While sitting at ringside she was smiling looking at Ripley finally winning the title. It seems even The Queen was happy knowing the SmackDown Women’s Championship is in safe hands.
There is no update of Charlotte’s future in WWE after WrestleMania. But she returned to WWE after a long absence in December and she might not be going to out anytime soon.
