Charlotte Flair defeated Bayley to become the champion for the tenth time

#3 Set up Becky Lynch vs Charlotte Flair at Survivor Series

It's been almost a year and yet it feels like yesterday when we saw the beginning of this epic feud

Last year, it was the build-up to the Survivor Series that saw Becky Lynch’s popularity blow through the roof. ‘The Man’ had her face accidentally broken by Nia Jax but she continued to lay down the rampage on the RAW locker room.

It will be poetic if she represents RAW heading into Survivor Series where she will have to face SmackDown Women's Champion, Charlotte Flair.

It is safe to assume that The Queen will not drop her title anytime soon. On the other hand, Becky Lynch beat Sasha Banks at Hell in a Cell and will look to put that feud to rest.

Hence, it seems wise to bring two of the fiercest women on today’s roster against each other at the much-awaited pay-per-view.

In 2018, their match at Evolution was recognized as the ‘best WWE match of the year’. Lynch’s HIAC match with the Legit Boss might also end up winning the same category this year and coincidentally, she has won both those matches.

It's evident that ‘The Man’ needs equal competition in all aspects which automatically makes Charlotte Flair a better choice as compared to Bayley.
