While Charlotte Flair shot to superstardom in 2015, Becky Lynch had to wait for her main-event opportunity. The Man won the SmackDown Women’s Championship in 2016, but she did not truly become a WWE megastar until 2018.

Writing in 2017, Flair said Lynch showed "true friendship" by supporting her even though their WWE fortunes were vastly different. The Queen added that she wanted to repay Lynch one day, presumably by losing to her in a WWE rivalry.

“We bounced ideas off each other, laughed together, cried together (sometimes from laughing), and were angry, but we always had each other’s backs. We wanted the best for each other. Imagine a friend who has something that you have dreamed about your entire life, but you still give her advice and want her to have that position and success. That’s true friendship. Even if I was getting pushed and Becky wasn’t, she was there for me. I can’t wait for the day when I get to repay her.”

A year after the book’s release, Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair participated in a storyline that turned out to be WWE’s best rivalry of 2018. The feud began when Lynch betrayed her friend at SummerSlam in a career-altering moment that led to the creation of "The Man."

The eight-month storyline resulted in Lynch defeating Charlotte Flair and Ronda Rousey in the WrestleMania 35 main event to win the RAW and SmackDown Women’s Championships. The historic match was the first women’s main event in WrestleMania history.
