5 reasons why Charlotte Flair challenged Rhea Ripley for title match at WrestleMania

#1 Avoid repeating rivalry with Becky Lynch

The two former best-friends need to wait before they reconcile

This is arguably the biggest reason behind Charlotte Flair challenging Rhea Ripley for the NXT Women’s Championship at WrestleMania. The Queen has a long-standing history with Becky Lynch and the friends-turned-foes-turned-friends are still struggling to exist without conflict.

Interestingly, it was Lynch who betrayed Charlotte but the former’s heel turn was received remarkably well by the crowd which led to the birth of ‘The Man’ and her iconic title reign. These two Superstars have locked horns on several occasions and have always delivered a great match. However, seeing them compete over and over is also the reason why the viewers don’t want to relive their feud.

One can’t deny that as long as Lynch and Charlotte are on the same show, they will always be the biggest hurdle in each other’s paths. Hence, a title feud between them becomes inevitable and it can only be avoided if the two are separated.

Enter NXT Women's Champion, Rhea Ripley.

Charlotte's potential move to the Black and Gold brand allows Lynch to focus on other Superstars and in this case, Shayna Baszler. The former’s decision to challenge Rhea Ripley made room for Baszler to make a much-deserved move to RAW and we wouldn’t have had it any other way.
