Flair initially signed a developmental contract in 2012 and has remained with the company since then. Throughout her tenure, she has achieved numerous accolades, holding the title of Women’s Champion on the main roster thirteen times.
Additionally, she has been a two-time NXT Champion and formerly held the WWE Divas Championship. Flair has also claimed the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship and emerged victorious in the Royal Rumble.
As of now, Charlotte Flair is absent from WWE due to an injury she suffered on the December 8 episode of WWE SmackDown. Reports later revealed that she sustained tears in her ACL, MCL, and meniscus. To address these injuries, she is slated to undergo surgery, and her recovery period is estimated to keep her away from competing in the ring for around nine months.
