Charlotte Flair walked in at the Show of Shows as the SmackDown Women's Champion. The Queen lost the blue belt in the main event of the show, as Becky Lynch walked out as the double champion.
Becky Lynch has been a proud owner of two prestigious belts of the Women's division. Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch came face to face last week for the first time since the main event of WrestleMania 35. The two women had a fierce segment before being interrupted by Bayley.
Charlotte Flair and Bayley subsequently fought to get a title shot at Money in the Bank. The Queen pinned Bayley to become the next challenger to The Man. Although several fans were not delighted by the outcome, the company might have a motive behind it.
Here we discuss three reasons why Charlotte Flair is locking horns with Becky Lynch at Money in the Bank.
#3 Charlotte Flair is an excellent in-ring performer
A large number of fans might be exasperated by the consecutive title shots given to Charlotte. There is no denying that the Queen is one of the best wrestlers to set foot in the squared circle, if not the best. Following the arrival of NXT, the company has been recruiting the best male and female athletes from all over the world. The Queen is also a product of the developmental brand, her astounding athleticism is praiseworthy, and she manages to stand out from the rest.
Due to her father's achievements, Charlotte claims to be genetically superior. As a matter of fact, she backs her claim with her proficiency in the squared circle. Following her main roster debut, Charlotte has been a part of numerous historic bouts which elevated the Women's Revolution in WWE.
Charlotte was part of the first-ever Women's Hell in a Cell match against Sasha Banks. Moreover, the Queen also headlined Evolution last year. where she fought Becky Lynch in the first-ever Last Woman Standing Match. Besides, Charlotte has main evented a WrestleMania.
With her dexterity in the ring, Charlotte always provides stellar matches. Charlotte's charisma and adroitness in the ring allow her to be consistently in the title picture. In my humble opinion, Charlotte is a better in-ring performer than Becky Lynch. The three-time SmackDown Women's Champion had stupendous title reigns in the past, and she might grab the belt which she never lost.
#2 Becky Lynch could become a full-time member of RAW by losing the blue belt to Charlotte Flair
Becky Lynch has been part of SmackDown Live for over three years, but she could become a full-time superstar of the red brand if she loses the SmackDown Women's Title at Money in the Bank. Lynch made history at the Showcase of Immortals by beating Charlotte Flair and Ronda Rousey.
Being the holder of two belts, The Man has been appearing on both shows every week. Considering the company did not unify the two belts as some fans expected, Lynch might not stay a double champion for a long time. Therefore, the champion might leave a brand after losing the Women's title of the particular brand.
Since Lynch has been part of the blue brand after the reintroduction of the brand split, she is not likely to stay on SmackDown Live. Lynch will fight in two matches at Money in the Bank, which is not an easy task for any superstar. The Man will face Lacey Evans, who will compete in her first singles PPV match next month. Lynch could overcome the Sassy Southern Belle, but she might not cross her last hurdle, Charlotte Flair, who is an eight-time Women's Champion. With the absence of Ronda Rousey, RAW Women's division needs a big name, and Lynch can undoubtedly fill the void.
#1 To end the rivalry with Becky Lynch
It is no secret that Charlotte Flair is equivalent to Roman Reigns when it comes to the Women's division. The Queen is an eight-time Women's Champion which is most by any woman in the history of WWE. Charlotte's main roster career graph is impressive, and she has had several memorable rivalries, but her feud with Becky Lynch stands out from the rest. Without a shadow of a doubt, it is one of the best feuds of recent years.
The two women were best friends before Becky Lynch turned on Charlotte Flair last year. It was the turning point of Lynch's career as she became the crowd puller. Lynch defeated Charlotte at Hell in a Cell last year when she became the SmackDown Women's Champion. The feud subsequently continued for months, but people expected to see an end to it at the Grandest Stage of Them All. However, the two women will face each other again at XL Center next month.
While the fans might be tired of seeing the two women tussle, they always produce extraordinary matches. Vince McMahon's billion dollar company might write the final chapter of this rivalry at Money in the Bank. Regardless of the outcome of the match, it might be the last time Charlotte and Lynch will face each other in years.
