WWE announced today on their website that Becky Lynch will face Charlotte Flair for the WWE SmackDown women’s title at WWE Super Show-Down. This is in addition to their match that has been announced for WWE Hell in a Cell later this month.
The two have been feuding since SummerSlam, when Charlotte took advantage of a prone Lynch and pinned her to become SmackDown women’s champion. Lynch didn’t like the outcome and jumped Charlotte, throwing her over the announcer’s table. The two have exchanged tense words since then and are first scheduled to meet in a title match at Hell in a Cell on September 16.
Here is the current card for WWE Super Show-Down, which will take place at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne, Australia on October 6:
The Undertaker vs. Triple H
AJ Styles vs. Samoa Joe for the WWE title
John Cena and Bobby Lashley vs. Kevin Owens and Elias
Daniel Bryan vs. The Miz - winner gets a WWE title match
The Shield vs. Braun Strowman, Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre
Ronda Rousey and the Bella Twins vs. The Riott Squad
Cedric Alexander vs. Buddy Murphy for the WWE Cruiserweight title
The New Day vs. Cesaro and Sheamus for the WWE SmackDown tag team titles
Charlotte Flair vs. Becky Lynch for the SmackDown women’s title
Asuka and Naomi vs. The IIconics

Flair also saw a picture of him and Ricky Steamboat, and called him the greatest babyface in the history of pro wrestling.
"There will be arguments about this, [but] not many that can stand. [Steamboat is] the greatest babyface of all time," said Flair. "I don't think anyone had better matches in the history of the business than Steamboat and I had. [His] physique, second to none. Legitimately tough, and one of the nicest people you'll ever meet in your life."

For decades there has been an urban legend about Savage having an affair with Stephanie McMahon in the mid-1990s. According to the unsubstantiated story, Savage was blacklisted from WWE until his passing once Vince McMahon learned of the affair years later.
Poffo addressed that rumor during the first episode of his new podcast, The Genius Cast.
"I don't know, and if I knew I wouldn't tell you because Randy was very private and I have absolutely no idea if that happened," Poffo explained. "I will tell you what did happen. Triple H had done an interview with a magazine and they said, what do you think of Hulk Hogan and The Macho Man? He said that they are great but they are dinosaurs. Evidently, Hulk Hogan didn't mind being called a dinosaur, but Randy Savage took big exception to it" ...
"I have absolutely no idea if the urban legend is true," said Poffo. "Like I said, if it were true I wouldn't tell you because it is nobody else's business. There is only one other person who knows for sure and that is Stephanie McMahon. Randy is not here and she is not talking, so, let's give him the benefit of the doubt and just talk about something else."
