Becky Lynch entered the WWE landscape with Charlotte Flair and Sasha Banks, all the way six years ago. Along with Bayley, these four names used to be the Four-HorseWomen of the WWE who went on to become the pillars of the WWE Women’s division. That debut also marked the beginning of the so-called Women’s Evolution in WWE history, also.
But at this point, Becky Lynch is not on good terms with her former bestie in Charlotte Flair, to say the least. It all reportedly began with a promo by Lynch, back in the days when she took a shot to the plastic surgeries done in Flair’s body. That heat between the two came to a blow during a recent episode of Smackdown during a championship exchange segment.

In an attempt to hand her title to Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair accidentally dropped the title to the mat, something that was off the script. Following that segment, Flair and Lynch got into a heated backstage argument but nothing got physical between them. Afterward, Flair left the building without meeting Vince McMahon, which angered him.
On a recent episode of the SI Media Podcast, Jimmy Traina sat down with RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch where she talked about balancing her life as a pro wrestler and a mother. The Man also addressed her real-life heat with SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair.

Becky Lynch doesn’t talk to Charlotte Flair, anymore
Per her words, she does not trust Flair, and they are no longer best friends. Traina asked Lynch for details on the bygone incident on Smackdown that was eventually edited out by the WWE.
“I don’t know, man,” Becky Lynch replied. “We don’t talk anymore. We don’t talk. So all I’ll say is the locker room needs a hero sometimes. And sometimes somebody’s gotta be a hero. I’m all right being that hero. That’s what I’ll say on that matter.”
As per WWE’s confirmations, Becky Lynch is set to battle Flair at Survivor Series in a Champion vs. Champion matchup. In order to go face to face for the build to that match, Lynch discussed that it’s harder to work with someone when there’s an existing real-life heat.
“Oh, 100% more difficult,” Becky Lynch admitted. “Yeah, yeah, yeah. That’s the thing. When you’ve got two people that are wanting to work together to make magic, then you make magic.”
“Sometimes when there’s hostility, when you can’t trust the person, then you never know what’s going to happen. You always have to be on guard. It’s like a game of chess. You have to be thinking two steps, three steps, four steps ahead. What are they gonna do? How am I gonna handle it? If they do this, if they do that, whatever.”
