5 reasons why WWE should build around Becky Lynch

#2 The Charlotte Flair rivalry

Becky Lynch has had a great rivalry with Charlotte Flair, and we may just be getting started.

When we look back at the biggest stars in WWE history, one of the common traits is that they had great rivals to tell stories with. Hulk Hogan couldn’t have reached the peaks he did without Roddy Piper to play his antithesis, Andre the Giant to elevate his legacy, or Randy Savage to work a blood feud opposite. Steve Austin had Bret Hart, The Rock, and Mr. McMahon. John Cena worked long stretches opposite Edge and Randy Orton to help him get over as the face of the company.

While it’s possible for anyone to have a good feud, Becky Lynch has an issue with Charlotte Flair that already has history but has miles left in its tank, and that features two performers who can go at a high level in the ring. On top of all of that, the twosome openly acknowledged in the past that they consider each other best friends behind the scenes. While one could argue that public friendship is a detriment to selling an iconic rivalry, it also means the two know each other well and like working together, setting them up for a long rivalry on top.
