Charlotte Flair recently revealed that WWE turned down her request to bring back her infamous “uh-oh” catchphrase.
Speaking on Ring the Belle, Flair reflected on how the phrase became popular with fans and admitted it was originally added at the last minute.
“Dude, ‘uh-oh’ was good. And that was like a last-minute addition… And had I won, I really could have, like, grabbed the mic and been like, ‘uh-oh,’” Flair said while laughing. “No, it was so good. It was so good.”

Charlotte Flair admits feud with Becky Lynch made her insecure
Speaking on TMZ Sports’ Inside The Ring, Charlotte Flair was asked if there was anything she would change when looking back at the rivalry with Becky Lynch.
“Everything. For me. For me. Not for Becks. Well, because, you know, she was the bad guy getting cheered and I was the good guy getting booed,” she said.
