As previously reported, former WWE announcer Lilian Garcia recently interviewed WWE Superstar Charlotte Flair for the Chasing Glory podcast. Below are some additional highlights from the interview, where Charlotte discusses her rivalry with Becky Lynch (transcript via WrestlingInc.com).

Charlotte Flair on her rivalry with Becky Lynch: “Anytime you can find yourself in a meaningful storyline you run with it. It’s the first time in a while for me that—I have been in so many great storylines but I think the fans are really sinking their teeth in this one and see how far you can take it. It is exciting; it feels fresh and new. Even though Becky Lynch and I have had the opportunity to wrestle each other, this time the dynamic is different, which makes it even more exciting.”

Charlotte Flair on how well she and Lynch know each other in the ring: “Becky Lynch and I came up through NXT together, so in terms of how we view how things should be in the ring and psychology and I know what she does well and she knows what I do well because we have talked about it in the car so no, I think it makes for a better overall presentation.”

Charlotte Flair on the negative reaction to her from fans: “Honestly, if I wasn’t getting a reaction then there would be a problem. Whether I am getting cheered or booed you are here to make the audience react and that is how I look at it. I don’t look at it as a negative. I look at it as the fans are invested in the story.”

Charlotte Flair on their rivalry being compared to The Rock and Steve Austin: “One, it is flattering to be, I guess. People talk about this being one of the greatest feuds of all time. That is very flattering but I don’t know, I mean, I guess, yeah. I don’t want to sit here and say that I don’t see myself as The Rock, but I don’t see myself as Steve Austin. I do think that the fan reaction that we are getting maybe that is why people are saying that because of these two dominant stars are going at it and the chemistry, and the attitude and the presence is why they are saying that.”
