Charlotte Flair made her WWE TV return during tonight’s post-WrestleMania 37 edition of WWE RAW, and ended up attacking Asuka and new RAW Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley.
Flair made a surprise return and cut a promo on how she wasn’t welcome at WrestleMania 37, but that wasn’t her fault. She said usually she’d be standing on the post-WrestleMania RAW but she wasn’t there, because she wasn’t welcomed. She went on about how good she is and how what she does is sacred in the ring. Flair said she wasn’t at WrestleMania because of things out of her control – it wasn’t her fault that Asuka needed a tag team partner, it wasn’t her fault her dad showed up to Legends Night acting like a fool, it wasn’t her fault that Lacey Evans got pregnant and she couldn’t kick her ass in the ring. Flair says none of this was her fault.
Following two nights of WrestleMania 37, Raw s fallout from WWE s biggest event of the year takes place tonight.
Bobby Lashley defeated Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania to retain the WWE Championship. But while Lashley held onto his title, three other Raw championships changed hands. Rhea Ripley defeated Asuka to win the Raw Women s Championship, AJ Styles & Omos defeated The New Day to win the Raw Tag Team titles, and Sheamus defeated Riddle to win the United States Championship.
Raw s Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler are still WWE Women s Tag Team Champions after retaining their titles against SmackDown s Natalya & Tamina.
In Raw s other WrestleMania matches, Randy Orton defeated The Fiend Bray Wyatt, Bad Bunny & Damian Priest were victorious against The Miz & John Morrison, and Braun Strowman defeated Shane McMahon in a steel cage match.
