You never know who might show up on the road to WrestleMania 40. It appears that Charlotte Flair might make her presence felt on SmackDown later this month, even though she is currently injured.

Despite the fact that she is injured, Charlotte Flair is now being advertised for the March 29th Friday Night SmackDown episode at The Mohegan Sun Arena. This is a very interesting turn of events, but the card is always subject to change.

Charlotte Flair faced a challenge after sustaining a knee injury during a December 8th, 2023, Friday Night SmackDown episode, necessitating surgery. Despite this setback, recent updates reveal a remarkable recovery as she diligently undergoes rehabilitation.

Flair surprised fans by returning to the gym in rapid fashion after her ACL surgery. She obviously doesn't want to waste any time when it comes to her return.

In an interesting turn of events, promotions for the upcoming March 29th Friday Night SmackDown episode at The Mohegan Sun Arena feature Charlotte Flair. However, it remains uncertain whether she will make an appearance during the show.

Despite her absence from WWE television due to injury, Charlotte Flair has been confirmed for WWE World on April 6th as well. That being said, her appearance on the promotional graphic makes some fans wonder if The Queen will also be present for the March 29th SmackDown episode.

I reached out to inquire about Charlotte Flair appearing on this graphic. I was told that she is still out of action, and she is not booked. There are several reasons why an absent Superstar would be advertised by a venue, because if is not an official promotion that the company can necessarily control.

It is possible that they are using a generic graphics, but other Superstars featured include Carlito, Jimmy Uso, LA Knight, Austin Theory, and Bianca Belair. It is interesting that no Superstars are listed in the advertisement, but Flair is certainly featured up front. That being said, she would have also been featured up front on any SmackDown graphic that they made up and sent out prior to her injury.

At this time, Flair is still working hard toward her return from injury. She is not booked for any WrestleMania match, because her current return date is expected for Fall 2024.

Meanwhile, Flair's husband, Andrade el Idolo, has made his return to WWE and is now part of the RAW brand. This goes against WWE's usual practice of not separating couples across brand lines.

The future holds intrigue for Charlotte Flair, but it appears she will indeed be present for the road to WrestleMania 40 in some respect with her announced appearance at WWE The World on April 6. Hopefully, it won't be long until she makes a full return to the ring.
