Charlotte Flair is inching closer to a WWE return and now a vignette has aired all but confirming her comeback on SmackDown.

During the December 8, 2023 edition of SmackDown, things fell apart for Charlotte Flair. During a match against Asuka, the star suffered a torn ACL, MCL, and meniscus, and unsurprisingly, the major damage required surgery.

While recovering, Flair has largely stayed out of the spotlight, only occasionally uploading training clips, giving hints at her progress.

However, in recent weeks the star has appeared to drop several teases about her impending return, while she’s been pictured working out with several former and current WWE Superstars. Charlotte Flair teased a new gang when she was backstage at NXT, but now it seems she’s closing in on her return to the ring.

Another Side To Charlotte Flair?

A vignette featuring Flair aired on SmackDown showing The Queen boarding a private jet and lounging on a luxury yacht. There was no confirmed date listed for Flair’s return but all eyes could be on a surprise entrance at the Royal Rumble on February 1.

Charlotte Flair lashed out at critics in a video posted to her social media, noting the criticisms made at her over the years.
