WWE Made a Big Mistake Involving Charlotte Flair, Says Former WWE Writer

Former WWE writer Vince Russo criticizes the company’s promotion of Charlotte Flair’s comeback, suggesting they deliberately showcased her wealth instead of highlighting her injuries.

Charlotte Flair returned to WWE at the Women’s Royal Rumble on February 1 after a 14-month absence due to injuries. Despite winning the match, Flair faced crowd resistance when performing as a babyface, quickly showing villainous tendencies in response to fan reactions.

Former WWE writer Vince Russo discussed this situation on Sportskeeda’s The Wrestling Outlaws. He questioned WWE’s decision to highlight Flair’s luxurious lifestyle in pre-return video packages rather than focusing on her recovery from significant injuries.

What did they do, Chris? Oh, they showed her on a yacht. She’s got all this money. We talked about it. We didn’t get that. That’s why, Chris, they miss the mark so many times. I always think they’re setting people up because it was so easy what they could have done.

Russo suggested that WWE missed an opportunity to generate sympathy by not properly emphasizing Flair’s recovery from ACL, MCL, and meniscus injuries. Instead, he believes the company’s decision to showcase her wealth created distance between the 14-time champion and the audience, potentially setting her up for the negative reception she received.

New Rumor About John Cena at WrestleMania 41 Debunked

Reports of John Cena receiving a Lifetime Achievement Award at a $25,000-per-person WrestleMania 41 luncheon have been corrected by Fightful Select despite the exclusive meal being confirmed.

Reports claiming John Cena would receive a Lifetime Achievement Award during WrestleMania 41 weekend have been debunked. The initial rumors suggested the honor would be presented at an exclusive On Location luncheon in Las Vegas.

According to Fightful Select, while the high-priced dining experience with Cena is legitimate, the award presentation is not happening.

We’re told that while the ability to purchase a lunch with John Cena as a part of On Location is accurate, there is no lifetime achievement award.

The confirmed event offers fans an opportunity to dine with Cena at a luxury restaurant on the Las Vegas Strip for $25,000 per person. The gathering will include speeches and special moments but will not feature any trophy presentation.

The exclusive luncheon is scheduled for April 19, the same day as Night One of WrestleMania 41. This event is part of WWE’s premium On Location experiences available to fans attending the company’s biggest show of the year.

Cena has been offering various fan experiences as he continues what he has described as his retirement tour throughout 2025. The 16-time world champion announced his retirement plans last year, indicating this would be his final run as an active competitor.

Nikki Cross has shared a cryptic image of The Wyatt Sicks on social media, potentially teasing the group’s return to WWE programming. The faction was moved to SmackDown in 2025 but has not yet appeared on the Friday night show.

Cross posted the mysterious image on X/Twitter without providing any clear explanation. Her sparse social media activity makes this post particularly notable, suggesting it could signal the group’s imminent return to television.

Taylor Rotunda, who portrays Uncle Howdy, has reportedly been absent from WWE events recently. Meanwhile, according to Sportskeeda’s Senior Editor Bill Apter, WWE has planned a significant angle for Alexa Bliss at WrestleMania 41 involving the Wyatt Sicks.

Bliss returned to WWE at the Royal Rumble in February and has been featured in segments on SmackDown containing subtle references to the Wyatt Sicks. She has also incorporated tributes to the late Bray Wyatt into her appearances.

A potential alliance between Bliss and the Wyatt Sicks appears increasingly likely. Bliss previously held the Women’s Tag Team Championship with Nikki Cross, with the duo capturing the titles at WrestleMania 36.

The faction suffered a loss to the Final Testament on Raw last year, which damaged their momentum. A partnership with Bliss could help revitalize the group after this setback.
