Charlotte Flair has revealed the fifth Horsewoman of WWE. In the 2010s, Charlotte alongside Bayley, Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch set new standards for women's wrestling in WWE while in NXT and were widely referred to as The Four Horsewomen.

Each of them went on to win multiple Women's World Championships and broke new ground in women's wrestling, ushering the Women's Revolution. While these four stars remain etched as part of this elite group, Charlotte named another female star as part of the collective.

Speaking to "USA Today," The Queen talked about handling the pressure of her character as she is now away from the main event scene. She will team up with Alexa Bliss at Evolution as they attempt to win the Women's Tag Team Championship. In her conversation, Flair was full of praise for Bliss.

“She [Alexa Bliss] was the fifth horsewoman. Don’t tell her this, but I adore her.”

Flair putting Alexa Bliss as The Fifth Horsewoman is a deserved recognition. Alongside the popular group, Bliss has been one of the mainstays of WWE women's division and has been involved in multiple high-profile storylines.

Bliss made her debut in 2016 and has since won multiple titles. She was the first superstar to have won both the RAW and SmackDown Women's Titles. She has also worked with the likes of the late Bray Wyatt and Randy Orton in the main event scene.

Known as The Five Feet of Fury, Bliss made her return to WWE at this year's Royal Rumble after being out of action for over a year. Flair has faced The Goddess in the ring and the two have feuded for championship gold before, but this time they are chasing success together.

Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss will team up to take on the reunited Kabuki Warriors, NXT's Zaria and Sol Ruca, and the Women's Tag Team Champions Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez at Evolution.

Fans got a little preview of the action when Bliss, Kairi Sane, Sol Ruca, and Roxanne competed in a Fatal 4-way match on SmackDown. With their tag team partners around the ring, chaos ensued, and Charlotte Flair was able to take out Raquel. Bliss then pinned Sane to pick up the win.

About the author

Sherjeel Malik

Sherjeel Malik is a writer at Sportskeeda and covers pro wrestling. He was hooked on the product from the moment he saw The Hardy Boyz jumping off ladders during the Attitude Era. While he comes from an engineering background, Sherjeel’s love for pro wrestling and content writing led him to pursue a career in sports journalism. Before assuming his current role at Sportskeeda, Sherjeel worked at other reputable organizations for five years.

While writing articles, he ensures that he only relies on credible sources for information and covers relevant subjects that do not project an agenda against a particular person or association. WWE legend Paul Heyman once shared Sherjeel’s work on his social media handle.

Sherjeel’s earliest memory of pro wrestling is watching Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Undertaker square off for the WWE Title in the main event of a pay-per-view in 1998. His favorite wrestlers are Randy Orton and Jeff Hardy. While he admires Orton for his character work as a heel, he looks up to Jeff because of his unique wrestling style and risk-taking ability.

If he could go back to the Attitude Era, Sherjeel would like to manage Ken Shamrock and be his mouthpiece. He feels Shamrock’s promo skills prevented him from becoming a main event-level act in WWE. Hence, he would like to help the UFC Hall of Famer get over with fans.

When not writing about pro wrestling, he likes to read classics and fiction books.
