Charlotte Flair has been absent from WWE TV since December 2023 owing to a torn ACL, MCL, and meniscus, all of which she suffered in one match. Her final appearance was at SmackDown's Tribute to the Troops show, where she wrestled Asuka.
For WWE, having Flair back in the fold is a huge plus, as the 14-time Women's Champion is a main-event talent whom the company can bank on.
Taking to Instagram, The Queen shared a new clip of her rehabilitation. She has been consistently keeping fans updated on her status via social media. While she has not made her return obvious with an announcement, one can safely ascertain that her recent updates show that she will be back sooner rather than later.

While there was a Draft this year in April, since Charlotte was on hiatus, it did not apply to her. This could mean that she becomes exclusive to SmackDown upon returning. However, RAW is moving to Netflix in 2025, so it is not out of the realm of possibility that WWE would want to start fresh with a clean slate.
Charlotte Flair will reportedly compete at WrestleMania 41
Although there are other big shows WWE produces each year, WrestleMania remains the grandest spectacle of them all. Meanwhile, the women's division has often been touted as one of the weaker aspects of WWE CCO Triple H's regime, despite a few major storylines in the past year. Naturally, Charlotte Flair's inclusion could be a real game-changer.
On the latest episode of WrestleVotes Radio, JoeyVotes and TC touched upon The Queen's return in time for WrestleMania 41 next year. The report states that she will be involved in one of the top matches on the card, noting how WWE certainly is looking forward to using her star power for the show.
Charlotte Flair's title defense against Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 39 was her last performance on The Grandest Stage of Them All. This bout significantly changed the landscape of WWE's women's division as Ripley's win cemented her legacy as one of the top players in the game, something she lives up to even today.
It remains to be seen what Triple H & Co. have in store for The Queen next year as Las Vegas hosts WrestleMania 41 over Easter weekend.
