I don't think so. From all of those vignettes, it appeared she was going to lean into the nepo baby, glamor heel from the start. I don't have a problem with that. My problem, as @Sun Wukong said, them just inserting into the title scene with Tiffy like they had to do this blonde vs blonde thing. So many ways they could have gone, but they gotta lean on the Flair thing.
I know the Haitch honeymoon is over and all, but I'm wondering if Dwayne's influence on creative is bigger than we think and extends beyond his direct stuff. Things really started appearing crappy to me when he returned and the women's division got worse.
Thank goodness for NXT.
I think it's still Triple H. He grew up a huge NWA mark and was obsessed with Flair specifically. His early indie career was basically a Flair knockoff. Even if their friendship is no longer what it used to be due to Ric increasingly going off the rails and many people distancing themselves from him, I think he still buys into the Flair mystique and desperately wants Charlotte to get to 17 titles because of it.
I think him, Ric, and Charlotte are the only ones though.
