WWE Replacement For Charlotte Flair

WWE Charlotte Flair replaced

On WWE SmackDown in Albany, NY, Charlotte Flair expressed her dislike for long-time rival Rhea Ripley before refusing to team with “The Eradicator” inside WarGames at Survivor Series on November 29.

While it remains to be seen if Flair will ultimately be convinced to join the fold, Ripley, IYO SKY and Alexa Bliss may instead be forced to look elsewhere for a teammate instead.

Here are six potential WWE Survivor Series 2025 replacements for Charlotte Flair.

6. AJ Lee

After making her long awaited return to WWE ahead of Wrestlepalooza 2025, AJ Lee has not been seen again on the company’s programming.

While it seems inevitable that AJ and Becky Lynch will pick up their feud for the Women’s Intercontinental Championship, one way WWE could set that up would be by having the two rivals take up opposing sides inside WarGames.

With two spots open on the babyface side and one on the heel side, it seems like a real possibility that we see this happen, with speculation abound that AJ could potentially show up on Monday’s WWE Raw at Madison Square Garden – a show that Lynch is booked to defend her Women’s IC Championship on against Maxxine Dupri.

AJ returning to fend off a post match attack from Lynch on Dupri, could even lead to both women being recruited by Rhea Ripley for WarGames on November 29…

5. Maxxine Dupri

Maxxine Dupri’s feud with Becky Lynch has easily been the strongest she’s had since first emerging on the scene in WWE over two years ago.

The Alpha Academy star has seen great improvement inside the ring, with Lynch being a perfect opponent to get the best out of her in their matches.

While it remains unlikely Dupri will dethrone Lynch for the Women’s Intercontinental Title on Raw, the match could lead to Dupri getting another crack at “The Man” inside WarGames.

As mentioned, with two spots open, Ripley could recruit both AJ Lee and Dupri, with Lynch taking the last spot on the heel team – setting up a nice continuation of several feuds inside the double cage.

4. Stephanie Vaquer

Monday’s episode of WWE Raw in Boston saw Stephanie Vaquer laid out at the hands of supposed friend Nikki Bella, setting up what seems to be a big Women’s World Title feud heading into Survivor Series.

However, with limited spots on the card it remains to be seen if Vaquer vs. Bella will feature on November 29, with the bout perhaps instead being saved for another event laster down the line.

If WWE does hold off on Vaquer vs. Bella, they could always feature the feud as a part of WarGames, with “La Primera” taking a spot on Rhea Ripley’s WarGames team, while Nikki Bella could side with the heels.

Regardless of whether it’s inside WarGames or not, fans will be hoping to see Vaquer feature on the card in San Diego.

3. Tiffany Stratton

Tiffany Stratton has been off WWE TV for two weeks since dropping her Women’s Championship to Jade Cargill at Saturday Night’s Main Event in Salt Lake City.

A storyline knee injury played a role in the one-sided loss, making her absence not too much of a surprise, but fans will be hoping to see “Tiffy Time” return to Friday Night SmackDown soon.

While an immediate rematch with Cargill may be WWE’s plan, they may instead be better off giving the long-time former champion some time away from the title picture instead, with a side quest inside the WarGames structure a good way of doing so.

With one spot still open on the heel side, perhaps Cargill could be convinced to join the action as well, setting up a tense meeting in San Diego between the two rivals.

2. Trish Stratus

While she’s far from a regular roster member these days, Trish Stratus has a habit of showing up for big matches in WWE every so often, as seen already this year at Elimination Chamber and July’s Evolution PLE.

WarGames is a structure that the seven-time world champion has yet to step inside, so perhaps it could be an appealing prospect for her before she hangs up her boots for good.

Potentially using the match to also set up an angle with a heel talent heading into WrestleMania season, Stratus taking Charlotte Flair’s spot in particular could also potentially be used by WWE to reopen their own feud from several years back.

Whatever the case, the fans in San Diego certainly wouldn’t pass up the chance to say “Thank You Trish” one last time.

1. Nikki Cross

Original plans for Alexa Bliss’ WWE return were for her to be involved in something with the Wyatt Sicks, but the timing of an injury to Bo Dallas meant things had to be changed around.

Still, it seems inevitable that Bliss and the Wyatts will interact at some point, and that time could be coming soon.

With Charlotte Flair walking out of the WarGames team, Bliss could look to another of her former Women’s Tag Team Championship partners – Nikki Cross – to step in.

That move could be the catalyst for a bigger storyline involving Bliss and the Wyatts.
