Andrade's Lucha Libre Online interview with Hugo Savinovich saw the former NXT and United States Champion claim that there is considerable jealously towards his fiancée, Charlotte Flair, in the WWE women's locker-room.

Speaking during his first major media appearance since departing WWE last week, Andrade claimed that while he didn't want to cause trouble for Flair within WWE, some of the company's female wrestlers have complained about the opportunities thrown her way (h/t WrestlingNews.co):-

“I have a lot of information but I don’t to cause trouble for her. I can say that I don’t know exactly that it was because of me that they removed her but there is a lot of jealousy towards her. There are a lot of female wrestlers in WWE but only 3 or 4 can wrestle for 20 minutes. A lot of them complain about her getting the opportunities.”

Andrade went on, alleging that another WWE wrestler once took a photograph of Flair when she was getting changed, adding that the company know nothing about it:-

“She’s had problems backstage. One time someone took a photo of her when she was changing. We know who but she didn’t want to say anything and WWE didn’t know about it.”

Extrapolating further, the 31-year-old stated that much of the alleged jealousy may come from Charlotte's lineage:-

“They have a lot of jealousy towards her. They look at her as just the daughter of Ric Flair. I know she’s a good wrestler and she has earned her spot in WWE. There is a lot of jealousy. After matches, a lot of people say she works stiff.”

Flair currently finds herself without a WrestleMania 37 match, having previously challenged Raw Women's Champion Asuka for the event. Asuka is now set to face Rhea Ripley instead, with Charlotte still offscreen after a bout with COVID-19 - as well as a misdiagnosed pregnancy.
