The unbreakable friendship of Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair seems to be ancient history.
Becky Lynch recently appeared on the SI Media Podcast to discuss all things WWE. During the discussion, the incident between herself and Charlotte Flair from SmackDown on October 22 was brought up. When asked for backstage details, Lynch revealed that she and Flair don’t talk anymore:
“I don’t know, man,” Becky Lynch began. “We don’t talk anymore. We don’t talk. So all I’ll say is the locker room needs a hero sometimes. And sometimes somebody’s gotta be a hero. I’m all right being that hero. That’s what I’ll say on that matter.”
When asked if having real-life heat with an opponent makes things more difficult, Lynch says it makes things 100% more difficult since the wrestling business is built on trust.
“Oh, 100% more difficult,” Becky Lynch said. “Yeah, yeah, yeah. That’s the thing. When you’ve got two people that are wanting to work together to make magic, then you make magic. Sometimes when there’s hostility, when you can’t trust the person, then you never know what’s going to happen. You always have to be on guard. It’s like a game of chess. You have to be thinking two steps, three steps, four steps ahead. What are they gonna do? How am I gonna handle it? If they do this, if they do that, whatever.
“This business is built on trust and working together that’s the art of it. That’s the beauty of it. If I make you look good, you make me look good. It’s an art. It’s a beautiful art, it’s an art I love more than anything. If people don’t know how to make that art, then it becomes difficult. It becomes tricky and you never really get the full potential. But there’s intrigue there, too, because we never know, was this meant to happen, was that not meant to happen, what’s gonna go down. There’s interest in both ways. One way, it’s the beautiful pure art of pro wrestling. The other way is a bit of a shit show. So we’ll see what happens.”
