Charlotte Flair on WrestleMania 42 Tag Title Match: “I Have Wrestled for Almost Every Other Title There Is”

Charlotte Flair is heading into her ninth WrestleMania with a sense of occasion that feels genuinely different from anything she has experienced before — and it is not because of the scale of the moment. It is because of what the championship represents. Speaking with Jeremy Jacobowitz ahead of WrestleMania 42, Flair reflected on the unique significance of competing for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships alongside Alexa Bliss at the Show of Shows.

“This will be my ninth WrestleMania. I have wrestled for almost every other title there is. Something feels very special about competing for the Tag Team Women’s Championship with my tag partner, Allies of Convenience, Lexi. I’m ready. We’re Night One and I can’t wait,” Flair said.

The observation carries genuine weight when you consider the breadth of Flair’s championship history. As a 14-time World Champion who has main evented multiple WrestleManias and competed for practically every major title in the women’s division across more than a decade at the top of WWE, the Women’s Tag Team Championship represents one of the few remaining boxes she has not been able to check at the grandest stage of the year. The fact that she is doing it with a partner rather than as a solo act makes it feel fundamentally different from everything else she has accomplished.

Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss Head Into WrestleMania 42 Night One Looking to Reclaim the Women’s Tag Team Titles

Flair and Bliss — who she refers to as “Allies of Convenience” in a characteristically on-brand heel framing — won the Women’s Tag Team Championships at SummerSlam 2025 in a moment Flair described as feeling like holding a World title. The two will now look to reclaim the gold in a Fatal Four-Way at WrestleMania 42 Night One on April 18 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, with The Irresistible Forces — Nia Jax and Lash Legend — entering as champions alongside The Bella Twins and Bayley and Lyra Valkyria.

Flair has spoken throughout the WrestleMania 42 build about the depth and quality of the women’s tag division right now, the trust she and Bliss have built through their partnership, and the desire to deliver a match worthy of both women’s individual legacies. Her declaration that something feels “very special” about this particular WrestleMania challenge — despite nine appearances at the Show of Shows and an almost unmatched championship résumé — is perhaps the clearest indication yet of just how much this match means to her heading into Las Vegas.
