Vince Russo suggested the idea of Charlotte Flair feuding with Stephanie McMahon in WWE
Vince Russo recently suggested the idea of Charlotte Flair possibly feuding with Stephanie McMahon in WWE.
Speaking on On Sportskeeda Wrestling's Writing with Russo, he mentioned how WWE could book a potential feud featuring the current SmackDown Women's Champion and the former WWE Women's Champion.
"She [Charlotte] could go down the road of, 'wait a minute, you guys ridiculed my dad for years, made fun of my dad, and made my dad come begging on your door. How's your dad doing these days?' I mean, it that's simple!"
Russo added that Flair must bring Vince McMahon into the feud to intensify things. He added:
"For her to just say, 'I saw what was happening when I wasn't around, and I gotta tell you. I sat back and had a good laugh. Because for the last ten years, I saw you treat my dad as absolute..call it karma or whatever; how's your dad? It's that simple, bro!"
