Charlotte Flair breaks her silence on RAW absence 

by

Charlotte Flair has confirmed that she has tested positive for COVID-19. The Queen revealed this through a tweet from her official Twitter handle.

There has been plenty of speculation over the last week or so in regards to the former Women’s Champion’s absence from Monday Night RAW. However, The Queen has now dispelled those rumors, revealing the real reason for her absence from the red brand on Twitter.

“I know everyone has been wondering where I have been. I have tested positive for COVID and have been home resting *praying hands emoji* Thank you everyone for your love *heart emoji* *queen emoji*” tweeted Charlotte Flair.

This should put to rest all of the other rumors that have been reported in recent days when it comes to other reasons for Charlotte Flair’s WWE absence.

Will Charlotte Flair be ready in time for WrestleMania?

With the confirmation that Charlotte Flair has COVID-19, this certainly explains The Queen’s removal from the WrestleMania promotional materials late last week.

Without knowing the exact date Flair contracted the virus, it is impossible to speculate when she’ll be healthy and ready to step back inside a WWE ring. An actual match at WrestleMania 37 might not be a possibility.

This will certainly be a story to watch in the next few weeks leading into WrestleMania. Be sure to stay tuned to Sportskeeda for the latest on Charlotte Flair’s health and her impending WWE return.

On behalf of everyone here at Sportskeeda, we wish Charlotte Flair a speedy recovery and hope to see her in a WWE ring again soon.

What are your thoughts on Charlotte Flair testing positive for COVID-19? Do you think this will take her out of the WrestleMania equation in April? Let us know by sounding off in the comments section below.

WWE announces Edge will appear WWE NXT this week

by

Edge made his return at the 2021 WWE Royal Rumble as the No. 1 entrant and was victorious in the men’s marquee match to punch his ticket to WrestleMania.

After a successful win over his long-time rival Randy Orton on RAW, WWE has announced that The Rated-R Superstar will make his first appearance on WWE NXT this Wednesday.

The 2021 Men’s Royal Rumble winner has teased in the past his interest in working with some of the talent in NXT. This makes his appearance lead to plenty of intrigue among fans on what he will be up to.

Edge even teased his first time on the black and gold brand ahead of the announcement after visiting his wife in Orlando where NXT is filmed.

With his victory at the Royal Rumble, Edge could realistically bypass the WWE and Universal titles to go after the NXT Championship. “The Ultimate Opportunist” facing Finn Balor would deliver a tantalizing matchup for sure, but everyone will find out what is next this Wednesday.

Potential NXT opponents for Edge

Besides the NXT Champion, there are a surplus of compelling encounters for Edge to have on the third brand of WWE. Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa have been pegged as favorites of the WWE Hall of Famer and would offer two different fantastic contests.

The Undisputed Era have been the top stable for the brand for years now and each member would provide a delightful dream match for Edge as well.

From KUSHIDA to Bronson Reed, fans could easily see a wide variety of terrific battles for the former multi-time world champion to sink his teeth into. Edge on NXT brings a lot of energy and hope heading into the Wednesday night show.
