WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair appeared on an episode of “Out of Character” with Ryan Satin to talk about a variety of topics such as when she found out she was returning to WWE TV.

Charlotte Flair said:

“Right around Christmas. I really wanted to come back at Survivor Series, but I had just finished getting my last stitches out. So he was like, ‘don’t push it.’ I got the green light the week of New Year’s.”

Charlotte Flair also talked about when she found out she was winning the WWE SmackDown Women’s Title.

Charlotte Flair said:

“I didn’t find out I was winning the title until I got there. I didn’t have gear with me. My amazing cleaning lady brought me my gear. I should have known better. I’m coming to a wrestling show, I just brought my outfit. I thought it was just going to be a walkout surprise because I had been gone for so long, I really didn’t need to be any major fireworks, but when I got there they were like, ‘You need your gear.’ I got the call at maybe 5ish that I needed gear, right before I got to the arena. She got to the arena around 7, 7:15.”
