Charlotte Flair’s tweet leads to speculation of romance with Bobby Roode
Bobby Roode has plenty to worry about as The Road to WrestleMania heats up with Randy Orton and Jinder Mahal coming after his United States Championship. However, The Glorious One may have to keep one eye on his entrance gear at all times after his actions on SmackDown LIVE.
Charlotte Flair, Roode’s partner in the Mixed Match Challenge, found herself at a 3-on-1 disadvantage as the mood turned sour in her face-to-face meeting with Ruby Riott. Just as The Riott Squad looked primed to pounce on the SmackDown Women’s Champion, however, her fellow “Robe Warrior” unexpectedly brought the standoff to an end with his glorious arrival.
Later that night, The Queen tagged Roode in a tweet that included lyrics from Brandy & Monica’s “The Boy is Mine,” leaving many in the WWE Universe wondering if romance could be brewing between the two.

Seem to be confused

However, The Riott Squad were none too pleased with Roode’s meddling, and they used social media to send a warning to the United States Champion about what would happen if he stuck his nose in their business again.
