WWE superstar and current SmackDown women’s champion Charlotte Flair recently spoke with Shakiel Mahjouri from CBS Sports about this weekend’s WrestleMania 38 pay-per-view, where the Queen will defend the gold against the 2022 Royal Rumble winner, Ronda Rousey.

Compares and contrasts her career with her dad’s:
My dad never main-evented WrestleMania. I’m now main eventing two. In ways I want to be like my dad: I wish I had like a quarter of his charisma… He is so unapologetically him and he was from an early age. I’m just now starting to figure that out in myself. He never shied away from who he was.
What her success means to Ric:
