Bengaluru, November 21: Charlotte Flair became the women's champion on Smackdown Live during past week's edition when she received an opportunity against then champion, Natalya in a match sanctioned by Shane McMahon. The commissioner granted a rematch of Hell in a Cell PPV between the two ladies.

The bitter rivalry between the Flairs and The Harts continued over the Smackdown women's title. They were able to deliver an A-grade match in the hometown of Charlotte Flair in North Carolina. The end witnessed a homecoming for The Queen who reclaimed her throne.

She locked in the Figure Eight lock on Natalya to make her tap out and win the fifth women's title in her career. The title change also altered the lineup for the Survivor Series PPV. Natalya was replaced by Charlotte against the Raw women's champion, Alexa Bliss.



It was quite expected as the spoilers were out before the PPV. Plus, WWE wanted Charlotte to have a championship coronation in front of her family. In addition, the recent reports from cagesideseats.com suggest that the recent mainstream attention that the Flair clan are getting lately is the biggest reason behind this victory.

In case you didn't know, ESPN has released a documentary on Charlotte's father Ric Flair's life, 30 for 30. This went on air and earned quite an acclamation from the critics and the fans, as well.



Also, the father-daughter oriented documentary - a biography of their life - has become one of the biggest sellers in the market. WWE values this kind of attention from the media and hence awarded the genetically superior athlete with the coveted prize. The Nature Boy himself was present to grace the winning moment of his daughter.

The source also declared that what happened after the match will be released as a WWE Network special documentary in the near future. It was a priceless moment for the Flairs in their home-turf to see the crowd erupt after Charlotte picked up the victory. Very soon, we expect to see more emotional backstage moments of this.
