Hereâs what Charlotte Flair shared about her WWE return
Former WWE Womenâs Champion Charlotte Flair recently shared a photo showcasing her progress in training recovery. The image featured Flair alongside WWE trainer and performance center assistant coach Norman Smiley. As a long-time member of WWEâs coaching staff, Smiley has contributed to shaping the careers of numerous top Superstars.
Flair also shared a throwback photo with Smiley from the start of her recovery journey. She captioned it, âDay 1. Love you coach Smiley,â while wearing a leg brace on her knee. By thanking her coach, Flair hinted that her return to WWE programming might be sooner than expected.
Now, the latest reports imply that WWE is planning a match between her and Tiffany Stratton for WrestleMania 41.

Volvo is currently in the midst of a major transition that will see the company fully embrace electrification over the coming decade. Part of that shift includes the addition of the ES90, a new mid-size luxury electric sedan that will be positioned alongside the gas-burning S90.
While many mainstream automakers continue to trend away from sedans as SUV and truck sales continue to surge, Volvo has been a stalwart competitor in the premium sedan segment. The ES90 will live next to the existing S90 in the Swedish brand’s lineup for at least a couple of years as Volvo evaluates if sedan shoppers are ready to make the switch to electricity.
The ES90 will ride on the same SPA2 platform as the larger EX90 EV SUV, which also underpins the sportier Polestar 3. That means the sedan will likely share the same 111.0-kWh battery pack and an electric driving range in the ballpark of 300 miles or more.
While Volvo hasnât confirmed any powertrain specifics, we can use the EX90 SUV as a guide. The SUV features a dual-motor all-wheel-drive setup that offers 402- and 510-horsepower variants. While an all-wheel-drive version is a given, the ES90 could add a rear-wheel-drive single-motor setup as well.
The luxury EV sedan segment is growing crowded, and the ES90 will face competitors like the BMW i5, Genesis Electrified G80, Lucid Air, Mercedes-Benz EQE, and Tesla Model S. The Afeela 1, from Sony and Honda’s joint venture, also joins the fray in 2026.
