Charlotte Flair is extremely proud to be one three women to be the first to ever headline WrestleMania after doing so this year, although it cost her the SmackDown Women's Championship.
Flair, an eight-time World Champion, joined Ronda Rousey and Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 35's main event back in May and admits it was hard to believe such despite claiming it was a possibility during interviews in the years leading up to the milestone.
The superstar went into the triple threat match as SmackDown champ but Lynch would lay claim to her belt, as well as the Raw Women's Championship after pinning Rousey. And the trio can be proud of their remarkable achievement, the likes the WWE Universe had never seen before.
A recent guest on Chasing Glory with Lilian Garcia, Charlotte claimed that she was called "arrogant" by some folks for voicing her belief that women could headline WrestleMania one day.

“No, it was just something that I had said so much in interviews and I was like, ‘oh this is really happening'," she said (h/t Mandatory)
"So that was really hard to believe because just even three years before that when I was saying it in interviews a couple people would say, ‘you know, that’s really cool that you want to main event WrestleMania, but you’re kind of arrogant’ like that’ll never happen, and then when it did happen those people message me and they were like ‘man you guys did it’."
Charlotte added that she wishes the entire women's division could have shared the moment while it was happening, singing out Bayley and Sasha Banks - Bayley was a guest on the podcast too - for their part in the lead up to the grand moment.
"And I think for me, it was wanting all the women that day - like Bayley and Sasha - to feel a part of that moment because Becky and I wouldn’t have been there hadn’t it been for everyone else in that locker room in the past and the present," she continued.
"I think it was just wanting to make sure that like even though I was in there, Bayley should have been in there, Sasha should have been there, and I think it was just wanting them to know I was grateful to be in that storyline at that time to main event because it took everybody. It just wasn’t Ronda coming or it just as you know, even off of Evolution. It was just I was just happy to be there, to be honest.”
