10 HUGE Predictions For WWE's Road To WrestleMania 39
9. Charlotte Flair Turns On Fans Again
Meanwhile, over on SmackDown, Charlotte Flair has to change.
Yes, again. There's just no way she can be a straight-up babyface vs. Rhea Ripley. The Judgment Day member is a heel herself, but Flair would be better-served going into 'Mania playing the tweener role. It's either that or have her be so friendly towards fans that it's obvious she's being condescending anyway.
It'd be a serious misstep to think that crowds will cheer Charlotte over Rhea, especially once Flair starts inevitably bragging about how she's already beaten Ripley for a belt back in 2020. That'll be the crux of creative's story, so they need to be careful they don't ruin their own flow by ignoring the obvious (that Charlotte sucks as a face).
Nah, Flair has to go rogue ASAP and then get egg on her face come SoFi Stadium. Rhea can still be heel and cut through Charlotte by avenging her WrestleMania debut defeat. WWE's writers just have to be smart about it.
