#5. Charlotte Flair vs Becky Lynch?

It only seemed like a matter of when and not if Charlotte Flair would win the Women's Royal Rumble match. She now goes down as the third woman in history to win the Royal Rumble. 2020 turned out to be a great start to the year as she last eliminated Shayna Baszler to win.

There were rumors that Baszler would make a big impact and win the Rumble, but as it turned out, she'll have to wait her turn. She came close, however, and had double the eliminations Flair had.

Charlotte's win seemingly sets her up against Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 36. While she has the option of going for Bayley and the SmackDown Women's Championship if she wants to, the plan appears to be for Bayley to take on Sasha Banks at WrestleMania (why else would they be aligned for so long?).

We love that all Four Horsewomen could be in a title match this WrestleMania. The last we remember seeing rumors of Flair vs Becky Lynch was around April or May of 2019. Nothing has emerged since, but this was a pleasant surprise.
