Ups...

OK, so to be fair, Charlotte Flair managed to run through all her accolades and pump herself up in the process of telling us how she wasn’t going to sing her own praises, but she kept it relatively minimal before revealing her real purpose for being out there Monday night.

Flair issued an open challenge, which Natalya answered. Nattie took Charlotte to the limit, as the two had a pretty good little TV match, getting aggressive with each other, reversing submission holds and countering each other several times.

In the end, Charlotte managed to lock in the Figure Eight for the submission, which was the right finish, though sooner or later, the cocky Queen is going to need to lose a match randomly, just to let doubt creep into her head. But not right now, and not to Natalya.
