WWE SmackDown Results (1/20/23)

In-Ring Segment: Charlotte Flair

Flair says Sonya Deville clearly has a problem with her. If Deville has a problem with her, she should come to say it to her face. Deville stomps out on the stage. Deville craps on the town they are in before saying she deserves a title opportunity. Deville yells that Flair doesn’t think she is worthy.  As Deville enters the ring, the crowd showers her with a “you suck” chant. Deville says last week it took six people to rip her off of Flair. Deville yells that she is a STAR. Flair says she does think Deville is a star.

Deville is the one claiming to be better than everyone else in the locker room. Maybe Deville is the entitled one. Flair tells Deville she should be focusing on the Royal Rumble instead of trying to jump the line. But if Deville wants a fight tonight, she can have one. Deville says no, but if Flair will put her title on the line… Adam Pearce walks out on the stage and says he’s heard enough. Before Pearce can finish his thought, Deville clobbers Flair from behind.
