#5 Charlotte Flair suspended by WWE for her actions on RAW
WWE announced that 13-time champion Charlotte Flair had been suspended indefinitely after her action on RAW. The suspension is clearly to advance the storyline of her new character, but it could mean that we won't be seeing The Queen on RAW next week or maybe even for a couple of weeks.
Flair had attacked the referee after her loss to Asuka in the main event of RAW. In a gruesome attack, Flair viciously beat the referee even after other officials intervened and tried to stop her from the assault. WWE official Adam Pearce stated on RAW Talk that Charlotte Flair had been officially and indefinitely suspended for attacking a referee.
BREAKING: per @ScrapDaddyAP on #RawTalk, @MsCharlotteWWE is being suspended indefinitely and fined $100K following her actions at the conclusion of #WWERaw
Charlotte Flair had returned to RAW last week and boldly claimed that she is "the opportunity in the women's decision." She also attacked Rhea Ripley and Asuka during their WrestleMania 37 rematch on RAW last week.
Flair is going all out with her new heel character and it looks like Charlotte Flair will be getting a shot at the RAW Women's Championship whenever she returns from her suspension.
