WWE broke the news shortly after this week’s Monday Night Raw that Charlotte Flair would be fined and suspended indefinitely for attacking a referee multiple times at the end of the episode. The show’s main event saw Asuka beat Flair via a roll-up (and a slight assist from Rhea Ripley), causing “The Queen” to go into a fit of rage. Both the suspension and fine are purely for a storyline, but it’s unclear if this will keep Flair off of television for a while even though she just came back from a brief absence last week.

This is My Shocked Face.
Don’t you hate it when something happens in a story e.g Charlotte getting fined/suspended and then fans are like “Fake. Not really suspended. It’s a story.”
