Who is Charlotte Flair now? How has your character evolved?įlair: The People’s Queen. All of those things weigh on me on a professional level, but it’s good things. I still want to have that “greatest performance of all time” moment. I still want to grow, learn, and get better. But personally, I feel like I still have so much further to go. So here I am, an active performer with the title, “legend.” What are some of those expectations that you have for yourself going into this the seventh time around?įlair: Well, for instance, I have an A&E biography coming out next week and it’s the for Legends series–which I didn’t know it was for at the time. I love proving people wrong so I love the pressure. But with my own personal pressure, my own goals, and my own expectations for myself and my performance–I feel like the weight of the world is on my back right now. With experience, I know what it’s like to be out there. I’ve always either been a contender, or a champion and here I am going into my seventh with the performances and the rivalries I’ve already had. You’re having to rise to the occasion that many times and on the grandest stage. I think pressure and expectation–all of it kind of adds up.
