Raw Women's Champion Becky Lynch faced SmackDown Women's Champion Charlotte Flair at WWE Survivor Series 2021.
The two women have been on a warpath ever since a title swap segment following the WWE Draft went awry. It was reported that Lynch and Flair got into a "heated confrontation" backstage, with "loud words being exchanged" but no physicality.
During SummerSlam 2020 weekend, Charlotte noted that the relationship between the former best friends had changed as they went on different paths. In the weeks leading up to Survivor Series, Becky has been vocal about their rift, saying she isn't sure if things can be repaired while they're still wrestling and admitting that she isn't sure if she can trust Flair in the ring.
The two had a hard-hitting encounter at Survivor Series that saw Lynch pick up the victory after reversing a pin attempt from Flair into one of her own. She was able to hold the bottom rope for some extra leverage, something the referee didn't catch. A full rundown of the match can be seen below:
