WWE is gearing up for a booming period ahead of Raw’s debut on Netflix, with preparations underway to bring back megastars to bolster their roster. One name reportedly in line for a grand return is Charlotte Flair. Recent reports suggest that The Queen is expected to make her return to WWE programming sooner rather than later.
According to WrestleVotes (Backstage Pass), the return of the 14-time Women’s Champion is imminent. Flair is expected to be back in the next few weeks, likely as part of WWE’s build to Raw on Netflix. WWE could also pull off a massive swerve by bringing her back at this weekend’s Saturday Night’s Main Event.
Fueling speculations, the 38-year-old recently teased her WWE return on social media. While it was initially expected that the former Raw Women’s Champion would return before Survivor Series, Saturday Night’s Main Event now seems like the perfect stage for the second-generation star’s comeback. She may be picking up right where she left off, which was her pursuit of the Women’s Championship on SmackDown.
Charlotte Flair’s return to WWE is “imminent.”
