Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair are longtime rivals
Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair aren't exactly strangers. The two women made their way to WWE's main roster together, back in 2015. It has been more than six years since their RAW debut. Both Lynch and Flair have done it all in the business and are guaranteed future Hall of Famers.
The Man turned on Flair at SummerSlam 2018 following the latter's SmackDown title win. This heel turn kicked off her rise to stardom and she eventually became WWE's biggest babyface at the time. At WrestleMania 35 in 2019, Lynch defeated both The Queen and Ronda Rousey in the main event to become a double Women's Champion.
Lynch and Flair last wrestled in a singles match more than two years ago. The October 14, 2019 edition of RAW saw Becky Lynch defeat Charlotte Flair in a traditional singles match, via pinfall.
