Charlotte Flair talks about difficulty caused due to Kairi Sane’s TLC injury

Kairi Sane suffered a concussion following a terrible bump during WWE TLC. She made her in-ring return recently at a WWE house show. Charlotte Flair was responsible for that injury, but she was unaware that Sane was injured at that time.

 


 

Charlotte Flair spoke to Talk Sport, where she talked about the difficulty of that situation. She did not know what was happening and there was not enough time to discuss things.

“It’s feeding off the crowd, going with the crowd and feeding off their reactions. So I didn’t really think anything until after.

Thankfully, Sane is fit to compete again. Fans were worried she might not wrestle for a long time after TLC, but that did not end up happening.
