Charlotte Flair Says She Has Unfinished Business With Rhea Ripley
Charlotte Flair and Rhea Ripley could tangle again in the future
Aug 22, 2022
It’s a rivalry that WWE fans are keen to see ignited, with Charlotte Flair never losing to Rhea Ripley in singles matches.
Many want Ripley to finally get one over ‘The Queen’, and they may get their wish some day soon after Flair said she has ‘unfinished business’ with the Judgement Day member when speaking with Stone Cold Steve Austin on the Broken Skull Sessions:
“I’m still looking for that next big feud, I’m still looking for that next big match," said Flair. "You’ve got Rhea (Ripley) probably wanting to beat me. Bianca (Belair), Liv (Morgan). There is so much for me to be excited for. The problem is, for me, I could just keep going. I always want to be better and sometimes being a perfectionist can get... ‘Mania, I wanted it to be too perfect and when I got to Backlash, I was like, ‘You do you, boo.’ That’s why it came across...this is my opinion, I do want to come back with a different layer. I came back after last year missing ‘Mania with The Opportunity, just changing my clothes, I want my body to look better, I’ve gotten in better shape, changed the hair up a little, what is that next layer? I can tell you it’s not going to be a good guy [laughs]. What does it look like? Am I darker? At the same time, I’m like, don’t fix something that is not broken, but you always need to evolve somehow, and what does that look like?”
Flair and Ripley have clashed in singles matches on four occasions, with Flair winning two outright, winning one by DQ, and losing one - also by DQ. Flair’s wins over Ripley have been criticised by portions of the WWE fan base, with Flair needlessly defeating Ripley for the NXT Title at WrestleMania 36 Night Two, and again defeating Ripley for the Raw Women’s Champion a year later at Money In the Bank 2021.
Flair and Ripley last clashed at SummerSlam 2021 in a triple threat match with Raw Women’s Champion Nikki A.S.H., a match that Flair also won.
