The Royal Rumble Premium Live Event started strong with the Womens Rumble match setting the tone for the night. In the end, Charlotte Flair emerged as the winner, but the reaction has been largely negative. Unsurprisingly, her victory video on YouTube has been flooded with dislikes, as it truly showed fans disappointment with this outcome.
WWE quickly uploaded a clip of Charlotte Flair winning the Royal Rumble on their YouTube channel, but the reaction has been overwhelmingly negative. At the time of writing, the video has 5,513 likes but 16,447 dislikes, meaning 75% of viewers disapprove of Flairs win. This makes it clear that many fans absolutely hate WWEs decision to have Flair get another WrestleMania title match.
It should also be noted that Charlotte Flair still is not sure which champion she will challenge at the Showcase of the Immortals in April this year. After all, Rhea Ripley, Tiffany Stratton and Giulia are all great champions in their own right.
Charlotte Flair has several high-profile options for WrestleMania, but the backlash to her win could put extra pressure on WWE to create an exciting storyline or possibly pivot this time around. Fans will have to wait and see who she ultimately decides to challenge when all is said and done.
