It'd feel pretty odd if Natalya and Becky Lynch didn't continue their feud after Battleground. Let's not forget that it was Natalya who turned heel on Lynch, repeatedly beating her up on television for weeks and making no attempt to justify to the babyface why she had turned on her at Money In The Bank.

There's also the not-so-small fact that both women have been drafted to SmackDown, which is (coincidentally) far away from where the WWE Women's Championship will be housed. Charlotte takes that title to Raw, so it's only logical that Becky and Natalya will continue to have problems on Tuesday nights.

At Battleground, it was the villain of the piece who came out on top. This again adds further fuel to the fire, hinting that Lynch and her Canadian counterpart will bump heads following this pay-per-view.

Maybe WWE will incorporate one of the incoming NXT females into the story, someone like Eva Marie, Carmella or Alexa Bliss could be idea. Whatever happens, it looks like Natalya and Becky Lynch are destined to have more matches, at least until the babyface gets that satisfying win.
