Truthfully, WWE could maybe get a couple of matches out of this pair rather than just one blowoff, but we’ll see. AJ Lee and Becky Lynch have something at WrestleMania 42 written all over them. It could even be for the Women’s Intercontinental Title depending on how long Maxxine Dupri’s reign lasts. That's unlikely to stretch all the way until April anyway.

One of the biggest issues with the women's WarGames match on Saturday was that it lacked the violence people have come to expect from these caged brawls. Come time for a singles between AJ and Becky, it's crucial that they up the intensity a fair bit. Giving them a 'No DQ' stip, or maybe even 'Falls Count Anywhere' or 'Last Woman Standing' would suffice.

At this point, a straight up wrestling match with countouts, disqualifications and rope breaks wouldn't cut it. There's too much aggro between them for that. However, if WWE's creative team do feel they need to go that route first and foremost, then they could easily hype Lee vs. Lynch up as a main event on Raw to cap off 2025.

One non-finish later and they'll be lined up for the Royal Rumble and a grudge match. Naturally, that fully hinges on how many matches Hunter plans to put on the Rumble over in Saudi Arabia. If Survivor Series is anything to go by, then it could be the 2 titular Rumbles and a couple of title bouts at most. That wouldn't leave much room for the likes of Becky and AJ unless one of them has the IC belt by then.

They need to be booked one on one though.
