While the current storylines ahead of Clash of Champions revolve around Lynch vs. Banks and Bayley vs. Flair, there is no denying that the 2016 rivalry on Raw between “The Boss” and “The Queen” will go down as one of the best women’s feuds of the decade in WWE.

Speaking to ESPN before the MSG match, Banks revealed that she knew she would “make magic” with Flair after the first time they locked up at WWE’s Performance Center.

“The first one I met was Charlotte Flair. We were in class together doing a drill and our coach told us to lock up and instantly we just snapped -- the chemistry was just there. From the instant of the lock up, I knew I would be making magic with her in the future in that ring.”

Flair went on to recall that Sara Del Rey, assistant head coach at the Performance Center, shared the same opinion.

“The very first time Sasha and I locked up in the ring, Sara Del Ray was like, 'Wow, that's chemistry.’ I'll remember that forever.”
