#4. Charlotte Flair calls Sasha Banks "selfish" for her actions on SmackDown

On the most recent episode of SmackDown, Charlotte Flair defeated Shotzi in an excellent match after Sasha Banks got involved. Shotzi then turned on Banks, who had been cheering her on from ringside.

In a backstage interview, Flair praised Shotzi for her part in the match but was quick to label Banks "selfish" following her actions.

"You know, Shotzi gave me one hell of a match tonight and she hung in there, as long as she could, and then it was time to finish her off. And then what happened? Sasha Banks wanted to steal the spotlight. Of course, why was she even ringside? She wasn't there to help Shotzi. No, she's selfish."

Now that they're both members of SmackDown, Charlotte Flair and Sasha Banks look set to renew their rivalry.

#3. Charlotte Flair's inner circle pushing for WWE release?

After news about Charlotte Flair's backstage confrontation with Becky Lynch, there were rumors she was backstage at an AEW taping in Orlando, Florida.

The story was quashed by PWInsider, who confirmed that she wasn't present at the show. However, the report did suggest that those in Flair's inner sanctum were pushing for her to consider leaving WWE.

"Flair was not backstage at AEW in Orlando, Florida over the weekend, although she has visited backstage in the past as Andrade El Idolo works for the company. We are told that there were those in her circle that were privately pushing the idea of her trying to get out of her WWE deal, but realistically, no one expects that to actually happen as of this writing."
