“I don’t know, man. We don’t talk anymore. We don’t talk. So all I’ll say is the locker room needs a hero sometimes. And sometimes somebody’s gotta be a hero. I’m all right being that hero. That’s what I’ll say on that matter.”

When asked if she trusted Charlotte, Flair responded in the negative and even admitted that things are difficult between them.

When asked if they were no longer friends, she simply said that they used to be best friends.

Lynch went on to add that it was harder to wrestle someone you had real life heat with because of the unpredictability of the situation.

“100% more difficult. When you’ve got two people who are wanting to work together to make magic, then you make magic. When there is hostility, then you don’t know what’s going to happen.”


Lynch and Flair are scheduled to face each other at Survivor Series in the Champions Face off.
