A major WWE Superstar recently revealed that she was hoping Charlotte Flair would pick her as her WrestleMania 41 opponent. Flair won the Women's Royal Rumble Match this past Saturday to earn a title shot at The Show of Shows in April.

In an interview with Grind City Media, Tiffany Stratton discussed the possibility of facing the former champion at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Stratton stated that she had been compared to Flair in the past, and while the legend remains an inspiration, she wanted to face the veteran to prove that she was better.

“She’s definitely one of my inspos. She was actually the one my mom saw on the TV screen and kind of inspired my mother, who then inspired me. If I am face-to-face with her on Friday and she does pick me, I hope she picks me. I feel like my entire career, I’ve always kind of been told that I’m the next Charlotte Flair or I’m a wannabe Charlotte Flair, and sure, she inspires me, but I’m not a wannabe Charlotte Flair. If she picks me at WrestleMania and when I beat her, I’ll no longer be the next Charlotte Flair. I’ll be the Tiffany Stratton," she said. [H/T: Fightful]
