Charlotte Discusses The Women Main Eventing Shows in a Male Dominated Industry
Charlotte Flair was on Fresno’s Fox 26’s Great Day (transcript via Wrestlezone) talking the women main eventing shows and where she finds herself in the next 10 years…
On not seeing herself as a professional wrestler: “When you grow up having your father being one of the greatest of all time you just don’t see yourself in that light. I also didn’t see myself as a Diva at the time, but six years ago it was my little brother’s dream [Reid Flair] to be a WWE Superstar but he passed away and now I’m continuing his dream and every day when I walk through that curtain I’m just like ‘I’m doing it for my brother.’”
On the women main eventing shows: “My moment’s right now and the women are absolutely killing it in the WWE. We’re taking over in a male-dominated industry which is now women headlining it. It’s almost like we main-evented Sunday and it’s like ‘oh they main-evented.’ It almost sounded normal.”
On where she finds herself in the next 10 years: “I think I will always be apart of this company or this industry. Company for sure. It’s one of those things once you’re apart of it and once you get that bug. It’s hard to walk away. When my dad retired in 2008 with his match versus Shawn Michaels then when I didn’t know anything about the company or my dad’s career, really. I was like ‘why can’t you just hang up the boots? Why are you having such a hard time?’ And here I am, 2018, not knowing that this was going to be my destiny. I don’t know if I could ever walk away. Whether it’s coaching or producing, I’ll always be in the business.”
