1. Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair’s History Could Come Full Circle Starting At The Royal Rumble
The women’s revolution will reach another level at the Royal Rumble with the first-ever all-women’s Royal Rumble match. There are countless individuals that could pull out a win in this historic match, but one, in particular, resides on Tuesday nights.
Becky Lynch was one of the biggest driving forces in the initial women’s revolution that took the WWE by storm in 2016. She became the first-ever SmackDown Women’s Champion later in that year, but her 2017 was a bit of a mixed bag. Lynch had success, but she also had some duller moments as well with a lack of direction at times.
The Irish Lass Kicker, along with the current SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair, are two of the most talented women’s superstars in WWE history. Their history together in the WWE is well documented, but the two could potentially make even bigger history if a certain result happens at the Royal Rumble.
On the most recent episode of SmackDown, the potential seed of Lynch winning the Royal Rumble match and going on to face her friend Charlotte at WrestleMania 34 for the SmackDown Women’s Championship was planted. They are two of the most popular and well-respected women on the roster, and a match the stature of what the two could put on at WrestleMania would be nothing short of outstanding.

WrestleMania 34 will certainly have some marquee matches, but a women’s title match pitting The Queen against The Irish Lass Kicker would be a match everybody would look forward to.
