In case you missed WWE NXT's latest Pay-Per-View, Charlotte Flair wrestled Io Shirai and Rhea Ripley in a great main event that saw Shirai being crowned as the new NXT Women's Champion.

Whether you like it or not, Charlotte has proved to be too valuable in any Women's Division, and if you thought she would take a backseat anytime soon, that was certainly not the case on this week's episode of WWE RAW.

Just a few several hours after wrestling in a TakeOver main event, Charlotte teamed alongside Asuka against The IIconics and the Women's Tag Team Champions, Bayley and Sasha Banks at the beginning of last night's show.

Not only that, but The Queen and Asuka would later main-event WWE RAW against each other. Nia Jax's distraction allowed Flair to pick up the victory and maintain her stellar win record against the RAW Women's Champion.

This was a bold booking decision on WWE's part. Because after the episode, it seemed like all the odds were stacked against Asuka, which is a good conflict for the Champion heading into WWE Backlash.

But all things aside, Charlotte Flair delivered as a workhorse for two consecutive nights, and it will be interesting to see where she goes from this point onwards.
