During the December 8th episode of WWE SmackDown, Charlotte Flair faced Asuka in a singles match, accompanied by Damage CTRL at ringside. The match concluded with Asuka securing a victory after a distraction from Bayley. After the match, reports from Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp indicated that Charlotte Flair needed assistance leaving the ring. While specific details about the incident were not provided, a photo circulating online suggested that she required help.
The conclusion of the match saw Charlotte Flair attempting her Figure-8 submission, but Bayley’s surprise entrance distracted her, leading to Asuka’s victory. During the match, there were signs that Charlotte Flair might have suffered a knee injury. In footage circulating online, Flair was seen clutching her knee and yelling ‘My knee!’ after a spot where she slipped and got caught on the ropes during a commercial break, which wasn’t shown live on SmackDown.
Charlotte Flair was assisted while leaving the arena after the match. The extent of her injury remains uncertain, and fans hope for a positive outcome, with fingers crossed that it is not a serious knee injury.

Real ugly spot toward the end, rushed to the finish. Charlotte Flair says “My knee” as she’s helped out of the ring. Seemed to hurt her neck, too. Just awful, wishing her the best. #SmackDown pic.twitter.com/kjMFIyOQix
