Charlotte isn’t going anywhere for quite a while.
Fightful has learned that Charlotte Flair agreed to a contract extension with WWE recently that will keep her with WWE for several more years. Madusa had said on her podcast recently that she'd heard this as well, and it took quite a while for people within the company to hear the same.
Charlotte Flair was the first extension we’ve heard of since the TKO merger, as it happened before the recently reported Dominik and Rey Mysterio deals. In addition, we’ve heard that it is a huge money increase over her last contract, and one of the highest-paid deals to a woman in WWE history. In addition, we’re told that an amount that covers travel bus was included in the deal, which are becoming increasingly more common among professional wrestlers.
Unfortunately, Charlotte won't be on the road for quite some time, as she's having surgery to repair her ACL, MCL and meniscus. We wish her well.
