10 Things WWE Wants You To Forget About Charlotte Flair
4. The Kairi Sane Concussion
An excellent main event tainted by this and several other unnerving moments, The Kabuki Warriors Vs Becky Lynch/Charlotte Flair at Tables, Ladders and Chairs will forever be remembered for the concussion suffered by Kairi Sane.
Which, due to the visual above in particular, is why WWE want you to forget about it.
Either due to a breakdown in communication between the performers or the various planned details of the contest clouding judgment, the severity of Sane's head trauma wasn't made entirely clear. Or certainly not clear enough - Flair's slap above following a welched spear is more brutal than the intended move, especially knowing Sane's plight.
This isn't to suggest 'The Queen' was careless, but that the anger in the moment was extremely misplaced.
Wrestlers place so much trust in so many people just to even work a two minute squash on television, let alone an overloaded gimmick-heavy pay-per-view main event. That enough went wrong in the process to allow any of this to play out as it did left a black eye on WWE and Flair in particular.
