Charlotte Flair channels her inner Arsene Wenger by wearing huge puffer jacket at WrestleMania

Charlotte Flair took a leaf out of Arsene Wenger's book, donning a similar jacket made famous by the Arsenal legend.

Flair, a wrestling icon in her own right, channelled her inner Wenger by wearing a huge puffer jacket at WrestleMania 39 in Hollywood.

And it didn't take long for fans to spot the similarities online.

Charlotte was set to defend her SmackDown Women's Championship against Rhea Ripley at Los Angeles' SoFi Stadium.

Walking out in front of 80,000 screaming fans, Flair entered the ring wearing a long, shiny puffer jacket with her belt wrapped round the outside.

It was an instantly iconic look, but some viewers couldn't help but be reminded of a certain someone who also dabbled in the odd puffer jacker here and there.

Throughout his decorated managerial career, Arsenal great Wenger was often seen sitting in the dugouts wearing a big Nike coat – infamously failing to zip it up on a couple of occasions.

Now, whether Flair drew her inspiration from Wenger is another question entirely, but that didn't stop football fans from pointing out the scary similarities in wardrobes.

One fan tweeted: "Charlotte Flair out here cosplaying Arsene Wenger."

While another posted: "I see Charlotte Flair has raided Arsene Wenger’s wardrobe."

As a third added: "Charlotte flair with the prime Arsene Wenger drip."

And a fourth chimed in, saying: "Charlotte Flair channeling her inner Wenger."

Charlotte, the daughter of WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair, went on to lose her title to Aussie fan favourite Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania.

Taking to Twitter after the match, she said: "Thank you @wwe universe! I may have lost tonight, but I know in my heart the championship is in good hands. Proud of you @RheaRipley_WWE."
