Charlotte Flair has gotten her fair share of advice from some of the best to ever do it, but John Cena specifically gave her some amazing advice.
WWE Superstar Charlotte Flair recently wrote a piece for The Players’ Tribune. In the piece, Flair wrote about a recent conversation she had with John Cena and some amazing advice that he gave her.
“Anyway, John and I were catching up,” Charlotte Flair wrote. “We talked a little about the journey he’s been on recently, with this current run and his retirement tour. And then we talked about the journey I’ve been on recently, with…………. everything. And he gave me this amazing piece of advice — something that sounded kind of surface-level when I first heard it, but now I understand that it’s actually really deep. He said, ‘Don’t just learn to accept the stuff that’s happened to you. Learn to own what’s happened to you.’
How John Cena’s advice affected her
And I’ve been thinking about John’s advice a lot lately — especially as I’ve been reflecting on all the stuff that’s happened since my injury. The irony is, things were going so well. Coming off the Rhea match at WrestleMania 39, I felt like I was really finding a groove. That might surprise people to hear, because I wasn’t part of any big storylines during that run. I didn’t win any big matches or titles.
“But I kind of just got to be … in the mix. I was a good guy, but I think for the first time, I got to be a good guy in a way that wasn’t at the top of the card, as this cloud hanging over everything. I’d tag with Bianca one night. Then maybe I’d tag with Shotzi one night … then maybe I’d work singles with Iyo one night … It was refreshing for me. I was having fun.
Flair reflects on her marriage to Andrade
“And then there was my marriage. For the last three years, Manny had wrestled in AEW — and us being in different companies had definitely put a strain on things. But now he was coming back. And just the fact that we’d be getting to work together, and not have to be apart all the time, I was so optimistic about it.
“I was filling up with these hopeful thoughts of our relationship getting stronger … of us having kids, and starting a family … maybe even all of us traveling on the road one day, and making towns together. It felt like the stars had finally aligned.”
