While many expected to see Flair pop back into the title picture soon, it looks like the promotion has another titanic match-up for Flair.<\/p>\n<p>Ever since WrestleMania, Rhea Ripley has been in a one-on-three situation against Jade Cargill and her cronies, Michin and B-Fab. Ripley soon found help in the form of Alexa Bliss and a reluctant Charlotte Flair, leading to a six-woman tag at Saturday Night&#8217;s Main Event in May. Flair assisted Ripley in retaining the gold against Cargill at Clash in Italy, and it was understandably assumed that she&#8217;d slide into the Women&#8217;s Championship scene there.<\/p>\n<p><template id=\"also-read-articles-template\"><\/p>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<p><template id=\"template__newsletter-inline-banner-form-combo-widget\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<p><img id=\"subscribe-img\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\nThanks for the submission!\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<p>After last week&#8217;s SmackDown, where the multi-person feud continued, it doesn&#8217;t seem like that&#8217;s the case. <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/c\/fightful\/posts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">WrestleVotes Radio<\/a><\/em><em> on <\/em><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fightful.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Fightful<\/a><\/em><em> Select<\/em> revealed recently that Flair was penciled in for a match with Cargill at SummerSlam. Per WrestleVotes, it&#8217;s been pitched internally, but WWE has been waiting for the perfect moment to present this first-time bout.<\/p>\n<p>Flair and Cargill are two of the most dominant stars in wrestling today with larger-than-life personalities and incredible physiques. Fans know how massive this match-up can be. Hopefully, the promotion doesn&#8217;t hold it off for too much longer. The question is, would their bout involve the Women&#8217;s Championship?<\/p>\n<p>Cargill isn&#8217;t the only first-time match that Flair could be eyeing.<\/p>\n<h2>Charlotte Flair and another WWE Champion tease dream match<\/h2>\n<p>RAW Superstar <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/player\/sol-ruca\/news\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Sol Ruca<\/a> has become a huge fan favorite since debuting on the Red Brand earlier this year. In a short time, Ruca captured the Women&#8217;s Intercontinental Championship, defeating <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/wwe\/news-becky-lynch-shares-message-shock-queen-ring-loss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Becky Lynch<\/a> for the gold at Clash in Italy just a month after her main roster debut.<\/p>\n<p>Ruca has been compared to the Queen for quite a while now. Both sport similar styles and hair, a gorgeous moonsault, and found major championship success very early in their WWE runs. The pair have actually faced off before when Sol and former tag partner Zaria failed to take the Women&#8217;s Tag Titles from Charlotte and Alexa Bliss.<\/p>\n<p>A few days after Sol&#8217;s championship victory, Flair posted a photo of them together, congratulating the 26-year-old sensation.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I see you woman @SolRucaWWE&#8221; -Charlotte Flair on X<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Ruca actually named Flair as a dream match for her in an interview with Elz The Witch.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Now I wanna go against Charlotte Flair one-on-one. I know we&#8217;re on different brands as of right now, but I&#8217;ve seen her in the ring a few times in tag matches and multi-person matches. But we&#8217;ve never had that one-on-one moment, and I think that&#8217;s my next challenge I wanna do.&#8221; -Sol Ruca on possibly facing Charlotte Flair.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>With how loose WWE has been with the brand split, it wouldn&#8217;t be too difficult to see Flair face Sol in singles action relatively soon.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-post-rating-widget\">\n<p><template id=\"post-rating-feedback-modal-template\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-feedback-box\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-content\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-data\">\n<p>Why did you not like this content?<\/p>\n<p><textarea id=\"dislike-feedback-text\" rows=\"4\" placeholder=\"Please type your feedback...\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<button class=\"close\">Cancel<\/button><br \/>\n<button class=\"submit\">Submit<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-widget-parent hidden\">\n<div class=\"rating-parent-container\">\n<div class=\"rating-content-holder\">\n<p>Was this article helpful?<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-action-container\">\n<div class=\"like-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-like-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"like\" title=\"like article\"><br \/>\n<img class=\"post-like-image post-rating-image\" data-lazy=\"\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"like selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dislike-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-dislike-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"dislike\" title=\"dislike article\"><br \/>\n<img class=\"post-dis-like-image post-rating-image\" data-lazy=\"\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"avatar selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nThank You for feedback\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"bottom-tagline bottom\" data-tab=\"bottom\">\n<p>Get all the hottest wrestling news FIRST by clicking <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=sportskeeda.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\" class=\"bottom_tagline_link\" data-tab=\"bottom\">here<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"tag-cloud\">\n<div class=\"tags-text\">\n<div class=\"scrollable-content-holder  article-padding\">\n<p class=\"article-p  \">Quick Links<\/p>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerLeft\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Left \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img style=\"background: none;\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-left.svg\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button><\/p>\n<nav id=\"pnProductNav\" class=\"pn-ProductNav\">\n<\/nav>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerRight\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Right \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img style=\"background: none;\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-right.svg\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<p>More from Sportskeeda<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<span class=\"publisher-name\">Edited by Greg Bush<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/wwe\/news-wwe-planning-summerslam-feud-charlotte-flair-not-rhea-ripley\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Queen of WWE has found herself a part of a heated feud between Jade Cargill and WWE Women&#8217;s Champion Rhea Ripley.
