#1. Backstage updates on Charlotte Flair's WWE return

Charlotte Flair has been away from WWE TV since June, and as we head towards WrestleMania season, the reports about her return have naturally started to surface.

WrestleVotes had reported this past week that an idea was pitched to have Charlotte Flair and Andrade as an on-screen couple.

Flair and Andrade, who are engaged in real life, have previously teased the possibility of pairing up on WWE TV. It was noted that WWE could use Charlotte Flair's star power to elevate Andrade to the next level.

An idea that’s been discussed however not determined at this point is an on screen pairing of Charlotte & Andrade when they return to TV. The idea behind it is to use Charlotte’s star power to elevate Andrade into the main event scene.

However, we might not see the couple together on WWE TV.

A new report from Inside The Ropes Wrestling has revealed that while the plan was discussed backstage, the on-screen partnership will not happen. It was added that the idea wasn't even pitched to Charlotte Flair.

The return plans for Charlotte Flair have already been locked in, and sources close to the situation stated that Flair insisted on having her long-term creative plans in place before she made her TV return. Andrade and Flair are both expected to be back sooner rather than later but, based on the later update, the fans should not expect them to show up together.
