Things didn't end here though as the two collided once again in the main event of WrestleMania 35 in a "winner takes all" triple threat match. The bout also involved the 2019 women's Royal Rumble winner Becky Lynch.

In what was the first-ever women's WrestleMania main event, Charlotte Flair entered the match as the SmackDown Women's Champion, while Ronda Rousey entered as the RAW Women's Champion. Becky Lynch won the match and ended the night as the first woman to hold both the RAW and SmackDown Women's titles at the same time.
