Charlotte Flair Wins NXT Women’s Title From Rhea Ripley At WrestleMania 36
The Queen remains the Queen as Charlotte Flair won the NXT Women’s Championship from Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 36.
Charlotte focused on Ripley’s leg throughout the match, smartly working over her injury in preparation for the Figure Eight. Ripley put up a valiant effort and managed to counter or fend off the Figure Eight, but once Charlotte was able to lock it in, Ripley had no choice but to tap out.
