Two weeks ago, Charlotte Flair waltzed into NXT and narrowly avoided throwing hands with Rhea Ripley. This week, the NXT Women’s Champion returned the favor, confronting her WrestleMania challenger on The Queen’s own turf. Unlike last time, the meeting got physical in short order.
Seemingly taking issue with Charlotte’s warning to her — “You are not me, you will never be me, and there is only one of me” — Ripley stepped to Charlotte and attempted to issue a retort before being cut off by the 10-time Women’s Champion. So, Ripley did what any challenger worth her salt would do and smashed Charlotte in the forehead with a right cross. For all their differences, it’s promising that these two seem to be of the same mentality in one aspect: The time for talking is just about over.
