Over the past few years, WWE’s Women Superstars have been making headlines and history by competing in first-ever matches and even having their own PPV. Just recently, another history was made when it was announced that the women would be main-eventing WrestleMania 35. SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair was recently a guest on The State Of Combat Podcast to talk about being in the main event and what it means to her, as seen below:
“This might be the pinnacle of the Women’s Evolution, but I still want to move that goal post,” said Charlotte. “If you could see my smile right now, I am beaming. I want to tell you that it has hit me, but it hasn’t, but man, we are the main event of WrestleMania!”
Charlotte then revealed that WWE Chairman & CEO Vince McMahon called her, Becky Lynch & RAW Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey individually to let them know the good news, as seen below:
“Vince McMahon told us all three personally, and just how proud he was, and congratulations and that we earned it. Coming from the boss it meant so much. He is trusting us with his biggest show of the year and he believes in us which means so much to us,” stated Charlotte.
“I didn’t know that we were going to be the main event. I had hoped. I still didn’t know, but I thought, okay, if we were going to be in the main event why haven’t we been announced? I was wondering if we were going to be or not so I was still a little surprised when I got the phone call.”
Charlotte then says that despite the women getting the main event spot the men have been really supportive, as seen below:
“I’m sure they want the moment but they are proud of us,” said Charlotte. “They are supportive. Anytime we had done well on a pay per view, like my match at Survivor Series, even WWE Evolution with my Last Woman Standing match against Becky Lynch at the pay-per-view, they have been supportive this whole way. They see how hard we work. We are given the same opportunity to tell a story, and right now our story is what should be the main event and they are proud of.”
