Charlotte Flair suffered unfortunate wardrobe malfunction that forced WWE to cut to black during WrestleMania
WWE star Charlotte Flair narrowly avoided an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction on the biggest stage of them all.
The 39-year-old Diva took on ex-UFC fighter Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania 38.
Flair defended her world title against Rousey at the event in 2022.
She defeated the mixed-martial artist with a stunning kick.
But the bout almost went down in WWE folklore for a very different reason.
Flair suffered an unfortunate wardrobe malfunction during the bout as she attempted to push up from the canvas.
The then 36-year-old styled it out after the unexpected nip slip, only for the screen for viewers at home to temporarily go black.
Flair’s eventual victory was met with a mixed response by WWE fans.
But she praised Rousey for giving her a proper battle in the squared-circle.
She said: “I think what people don’t realise is that she wanted to come here.
“No one went after her, so everyone should be proud of what we’ve accomplished here and the buzz we’ve created and the women’s evolution and being able to main-event pay-per-views, Raw and SmackDown.
“That’s a testament to what we’ve done here, that she wants to come here and be a part of what we’ve done.
“Sometimes people get critical of outside talent coming in, but she wants to be a part of what we’ve done here.
“That should make you feel good, and she does bring more eyeballs to people who aren’t necessarily familiar with the product, like Total Divas.
“Total Divas brought outside viewers and that’s great for us.”
Flair has since gone on to become a 14-time women’s world champion.
She has suffered from injuries since her bout with Rousey three years ago, but returned in February at the Royal Rumble.
Rousey retired from the WWE in 2023, citing a number of concussions she suffered as an MMA fighter.
She has since appeared sporadically on the independent wrestling circuit.
