Becky Lynch is arguably one of WWE's biggest stars on their current roster. While many would claim that the RAW women's division needed her more, moving her over to SmackDown as the champion was a smart decision by the company.

Gone are the days of the Wednesday Night Wars between NXT and Dynamite. We are into a new era now with the Friday Night Wars between SmackDown and Rampage. WWE lost the first war to AEW and Vince McMahon would want to win this second war now. The Blue brand is doing pretty well from the rating perspective and having Lynch on the show will further bump them up.

The way Becky Lynch made her return tonight, she already has a number of feuds lined up for her. One is definitely against Bianca Belair, more on that in the next slide. Another major feud that she could have on SmackDown is against Sasha Banks.

Lynch, in many ways, was a last-minute replacement for Banks, who had to miss the show due to "unforeseen circumstances". Whenever she makes her return, she'll definitely bring up the fact that The Man took her spot at SummerSlam, leading to a feud between the two.
