Charlotte Flair Returns To Win WWE Royal Rumble

The 2025 Royal Rumble kicked off with the women’s Rumble match and now the whole world knows Charlotte Flair is heading to WrestleMania 41.

IYO SKY and Liv Morgan kicked off the women’s Rumble match and were in for a long night if either of them planned on earning a title shot at WrestleMania 41. One WWE star suffered a wardrobe malfunction during the bout but the ring filled up with talent from all three brands.

Jordynne Grace made her official debut as a member of the WWE roster on the show and Alexa Bliss made her shock return to the ring as well.

WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus rolled back the years as she delivered some Stratusfaction and at number 27, Charlotte Flair made her return to the ring after a year out of action and now sporting a knee brace as a reminder of the injury that she suffered.

The number 30 spot went to Nikki Bella who was competing in her first match in three years when she appeared in the 2022 Rumble match.

Nia Jax dominated the match, eliminating six women at once but she was dumped over the top by Charlotte Flair as the bout came down to The Queen and Roxanne Perez. With Perez on the apron, Charlotte Flair nailed her with a big boot to become the first woman to win two Royal Rumble matches.

Charlotte Flair will now have her pick at WrestleMania 41 where she will challenge either for the Women’s World Title currently held by Rhea Ripley or the WWE Women’s Championship held by Tiffany Stratton.
