Bianca Belair discusses Charlotte Flair's recent injury and if she feels we will still get a match between the two women at WrestleMania.
On the December 8th edition of SmackDown, Charlotte would get tied up in the ropes while looking to hit a move from the top rope. This would lead to a torn ACL injury that Flair underwent surgery to repair the damage done to her knee.
One woman who is all to familar with Flair is Bianca Belair, who has been vocal about wanting a match with Flair at WrestleMania one day. While speaking to Wednesday Worldwide, Belair discussed Flair's injury, noting that she still hopes one day the two women can square off inside the squared circle.
“Yeah, definitely. I’ve talked to her a few times. I just talked to her on Saturday, checking in with her. The whole SmackDown roster, we miss her so much. But I don’t really want to speak for her and for her journey, but I was checking in with her and making sure she’s doing good. As you said, she’s one of my dream opponents, especially for WrestleMania. I’m just hoping one day we still get that match, and I think that’s a huge match that can happen with or without a title. Of course, I would go after a title with Charlotte Flair, but I also feel like that match would be so big that it wouldn’t need a title. I think our women’s roster has evolved so much, has so much talent that we can have a WrestleMania match for women that isn’t a title match. Because that’s how big that match can be, and that doesn’t really happen at WrestleMania for women. It’s usually always the title match that happens, but our roster’s so strong that having Belair versus Flair can stand on its own, even without a title and be an amazing match. So I’m hoping that that can happen in the future with or without a title at WrestleMania. So I just know Charlotte Flair, she is one of the hardest-workers in this business and loves wrestling. For that, you have to appreciate her for that. Knowing how hard working she is, I just know that, this recovery, she’s gonna back as fast as she can. I already know that about her. She’s gonna really put her mind to this recovery and really beast it, so I’m excited about her comeback."
Belair and Flair have previously met in singles action on two seperate occasions, but have yet to have a definitive winner.
On the week of her surgery, Charlotte sent a message of thanks to all of those who have wished her well since her injury. You can read more about that here.
