Coincidentally, on the same day, her fiance, Andrade el Idolo, appeared in a title match against AAA Mega Champion Kenny Omega. As expected, fans started speculating that Charlotte was accompanying Andrade at AAA TripleMania instead of WWE.

The speculations grew more intense when WWE Hall of Famer and Flair’s father, Ric Flair, accompanied Andrade to the ring during the match. WWE released the former NXT Champion earlier this year. However, Omega finally had the better of Andrade and won with a One-winged Angel.
