Charlie says that she absolutely gets why people consider her injury-prone, though she is quick to push back on the notion. The former Dakota Kai dealt with a number of injuries during her time in WWE, leading to her being saddled with the undesirable label.

Charlie was asked about her reputation for injuries on Ring the Belle and said that she gets it a lot and understands why people think that way, though it does get to her frmo time to time.

“Oh yeah, I do get that a lot,” Charlie said (per Fightful). “I understand it though because I did have a bout of injuries and things like that so it was just bad luck on my end, and it’s one of those things that will just always unfortunately be. Fair.”

She added, “But I think a lot of people go through it too that haven’t had injuries as well, and it is what it is. It’s just one of those things and it does tend to get to me sometimes too because I’m like, ‘No, no, I’m freaking strong’ or whatever but, that’s just the perception they have and all I can do is go out there and continue to do matches and hopefully change the perception of that. But I did have a bad bout for a second there. It was just bad luck and yeah, it is what it is.”

Charlie was released from WWE in 2025 and is back on the independent scene.
