1) The Backstage Reaction To Charlotte Flair After TLC
Charlotte Flair has been taking a lot of heat online since the TLC match on Sunday night. This is because of how she handled the injury of Kairi Sane during their TLC match.
According to journalist Tom Colohue, Charlotte or Becky Lynch are not being blamed for what happened at TLC. Here is what he wrote:
However, it has been explained to me that WWE does not blame either woman for how they acted in this match at all.
Sources indicate that the full extent of Sane’s injury was not clear until late in the match. One source made it clear to me that the table spot, well after the thrown monitor and only just before the powerbomb, is the first time that anybody in the WWE realized that something had gone wrong.
Charlotte Flair is believed to have simply been continuing the match, unaware of Sane’s injury until it was too late and she was already in the air for the powerbomb. Meanwhile, as things have become clearer, viewers noticed Becky Lynch in many ways taking charge in the match. WWE sources have confirmed that Lynch and Flair made the decision to remove Sane from the match as quickly as possible once the extent of her injury had become clear.
Here is a quote from Colohue’s source about Charlotte and Becky:
“Nobody blames Charlotte or Becky. They’ve done their job and then some. Sane wasn’t in any danger. They’re two of the best in the world and they wouldn’t hurt anyone.”
My Take:
- I don’t blame Charlotte Flair but I do blame WWE. They should have had their doctors pause the match and check on Kairi. I know that it would have sucked but Kairi’s health is the most important thing. Head injuries can be especially dangerous.
