#1. Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch “swapped” their titles on WWE SmackDown

After successfully defending her WWE SmackDown Women’s Championship at Crown Jewel, Becky Lynch made her way to the show on Friday night. She took part in the final segment of the episode along with RAW Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair.

Sonya Deville joined them in the ring for a special Championship Exchange Ceremony. The idea did not create much impact as the titles seemed nothing more than props because of the switch.

The entire segment seemed a little too awkward as Becky first tried to grab Flair’s title and then threw hers' at The Queen. Soon after, Sasha Banks entered the ring arena to remind the two champions that she runs the SmackDown brand.

Lynch exited as Banks and Flair had a verbal exchange. It led to a brawl between the two women and The Boss dropped Flair with a Meteora.

The entire segment did not look too good, but Banks’ arrival made things much better. She did take the pin from Lynch on Thursday night but is still one of the most accomplished women on SmackDown.

Banks feels like the right opponent for Flair at this time. She could turn face and take down The Queen for the SmackDown Women’s Championship soon.

WWE also did well to plant the seeds for a possible match between Flair and Lynch at Survivor Series.
