WWE Superstar Becky Lynch is opening up about her relationship with longtime frenemy Charlotte Flair … telling TMZ Sports the undercurrent of all of it is "love."
We caught up with The Man in New York City while she was promoting her new book, "The Man: Not Your Average Average Girl" ... and the four-time WWE women's champion went in-depth about the ups and downs she's had with Ric's daughter.
Lynch and Flair -- who spent time on NXT together before moving on to WWE's main roster -- were tight at points ... but, it was fractured at points too.
Lynch, however, revealed she and Flair are now in a good spot -- so much so, Becky actually devoted several pages of her book to the Queen.
"She's been a huge part of my journey in every capacity and such an important part, as best friends, as then enemies and a fallout," Lynch said. "I talk about that [in my book] from my perspective ... but also the undercurrent of all of it is love."
"It's always the people that you love the most that maybe hurt you the most, I know I've hurt her and it's been reciprocal. But, when I think you can come back from all of that, that's the special thing."
Big Time Becks also had some words for her Mania opponent, Rhea Ripley, warning Mami she better enjoy her last few weeks as champ.
"I’ll earn it," Lynch told us. "I’ll beat the bejesus out of her -- make her question why she ever showed up to Philadelphia."
Whatever Lynch’s gameplan is at the showcase of immortals must be viscous ... as she says her daughter might be traumatized if she watches.
"Hopefully she won't be watching too closely 'cause I think she might be a little scared of her mommy if she sees what she does to Rhea Ripley," Lynch said.

Rebel Wilson Slams SBC Over Leaked Sex Scene ... 'A**hole Move'!!!
Rebel Wilson is suggesting Sacha Baron Cohen leaked footage from their movie together that seems to contradict her claim against him ... and also saying it's way out of context.
The actress is referring to a video published Friday by Daily Mail -- which shows behind-the-scenes footage of Rebel and Sacha filming for 2016's "The Brothers Grimsby" ... and which also appears to show Rebel seemingly being onboard with the whole finger-in-butt thing.
Remember ... Rebel alleged that Sacha had sprung that scene on her out of nowhere while they were filming, but Sacha has said the opposite -- claiming she knew what was up.
50 Cent Denies Daphne Joy's Rape Claim ... Will Fight for Custody of Son
50 Cent is going to war with the mother of his son after she publicly accused him of raping her -- which he says is a totally false claim Daphne Joy is only making in retaliation for him seeking full custody.
Daphne, the mother of 12-year-old Sire, and 50's latest drama is tied directly to one of the lawsuits filed against Diddy. As we reported, Rodney Jones' latest amendment to that suit, claimed Daphne was a "sex worker" for the Bad Boy mogul ... an allegation that immediately caught 50 Cent's attention.
After 50 reacted on Instagram by posting, "I didn't know you was a sex worker, 👀 you little sex worker. LOL 😆" -- Daphne lit him up with a post of her own, saying ... "Let's put the real focus on your true evil actions of raping me and physically abusing me."

Diddy quería conversar con Kanye West en un concierto en Los Ángeles este mes, pero Ye terminó esquivando la conversación, lo que es interesante, teniendo en cuenta lo que ha pasado en la vida del magnate de Bad Boy desde entonces.
Fuentes con conocimiento directo le dicen a TMZ que Diddy estaba pasando el rato detrás del escenario de Rolling Loud en Los Ángeles hace un par de semanas. Él y su séquito habían llegado al lugar para ver la actuación de Ye, y Diddy le habría dicho a la gente cercana a Ye que quería reunirse cara a cara con él para hablar personalmente.
Sin embargo, nos dicen que Kanye no tuvo ningún interés en la propuesta cuando se lo hicieron saber, o por lo menos nos dicen que no estaba entusiasmado con reunirse.
Larry David Trump's a Little Baby, Sociopath, Insane, Sick Man
Larry David ripped into Donald Trump for refusing to accept the results of the 2020 election ... saying the former Prez has upended 250 years of democracy, as LD explodes in anger.
The "Curb Your Enthusiasm" star sounded off on "Who's Talking to Chris Wallace?" ... where the accuser could not hide his disdain and contempt for 45.
Larry says ... "He’s such a sociopath, he’s so insane, he just couldn’t admit to losing. And we know he lost. He knows he lost. And look how he’s fooled everybody, he’s convinced all these people that he didn’t lose. He’s such a sick man. He’s so sick."

Diddy wanted a word with Kanye West at an L.A. concert this month, but Ye ended up ducking the convo -- which is interesting, considering what's gone down in the Bad Boy mogul's world since then.
Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Diddy was hanging out backstage at Rolling Loud in Los Angeles a couple weeks ago ... he and his entourage had rolled up to watch Ye's performance, and he told people close to Ye he wanted a face-to-face to say what's up, personally.
However, we're told Kanye had no interest in the proposed meeting when it was brought to his attention -- or at the very least, we're told he wasn't champing at the bit to meet up.

Don Lemon is not saying never about returning to CNN -- which fired him last year -- and even has some requirements in mind, but he's also very realistic about why it ain't happening ... most likely.
The famed newsman joined us on the "TMZ Podcast" this week, and revealed he'd be open to going back to his former employer if they offered a particular company car -- one more associated with Elon Musk, ironically.
We're confident he was joking, but Don was serious about not holding his breath for a call from CNN. He says there's no bad blood between them, but also explained why it's probably not a great fit, for him at least.
LOS BEATLES Y MUHAMMAD ALI "ESA FOTO PROMOCIONAL FUE UN ERROR" Dijo John Lennon
John Lennon no se anduvo con rodeos a la hora de decir lo mucho que detestó la sesión de fotos de 1964 de los Beatles con Muhammad Ali... según el hombre que tomó esas icónicas imágenes.
El famoso fotógrafo de los Beatles -Harry Benson- habló sobre la tensión entre las leyendas mientras celebraba los 60 años de aquellas fotos, diciéndole a Fox News Digital que Ali no perdió el tiempo y cuestionó las capacidades musicales del cuarteto.
No solo golpeó a los Beatles donde más les dolía, sino que Ali también los midió, llamándolos "diminutos, pequeños, pequeños hombres" en comparación con su imponente figura.
Harry dice que Ali continuó asestando golpes de gracia a los egos de los Fab Four... afirmando que era más guapo que ellos -aunque eso se lo decía a todo el mundo- y confiaba plenamente en que John y compañía no le devolverían el golpe, porque él era el campeón.
Cuando la sesión terminó, los Beatles estallaron. Lennon dijo que todo el asunto había sido un error y acusó a Ali de hacerlos quedar mal.
Mientras Benson dice que su visión para el rodaje se hizo realidad, y él quedó feliz con el resultado, dice que los Beatles, incluidos los dos miembros supervivientes Paul McCartney y Ringo Starr, nunca lo han perdonado.
¡Es demasiado como para dejarlo estar!
THE BEATLES & MUHAMMAD ALI John Lennon Said ... Our Photo Collab Was a MISTAKE!!!
John Lennon pulled no punches about how much he detested the Beatles' 1964 knockout photo shoot with Muhammad Ali ... that's according to the guy who snapped those iconic images.
Famed Beatles photog Harry Benson spilled the tea on the tension between the legends while celebrating 60 years of snapping pics of the band, telling Fox News Digital ... Ali wasted no time throwing shade, telling the singers their music wasn't all that.
Not only did he hit the Beatles where it hurt by questioning their musical chops, but Ali also went on to size them up, calling them "tiny, small, little men" compared to his towering frame.
Rebel Wilson Claims Sacha Baron Cohen Asked Her to Stick Finger Up His Butt
Rebel Wilson's claims against Sacha Baron Cohen are becoming more clear -- because an excerpt from her new book is out ... and she details a pretty disturbing story about him.
The actress's new memoir, 'Rebel Rising,' is due out in a few days ... and People Mag obtained an excerpt -- which features descriptions of things Rebel claims happened on the set of their 2016 flick 'The Brothers Grimsby' ... including a lot of inappropriate behavior.
She writes, "It felt like every time I’d speak to SBC, he’d mention that he wanted me to go naked in a future scene. I was like, 'Ha, I don’t do nudity, Sacha.'"
Drake's Dad Stop Ganging' Up on My Boy ... Better Get a Life, Bullies!!!
Drake's dad is jumping into the fray on behalf of his son -- calling out Kendrick Lamar and everyone else who seems to be taking shots at Drizzy over this out-of-nowhere beef.
On Monday, DG posted Drake's 2017 "More Life" album cover art that famously used his likeness and heaped on the sarcasm towards Future and Metro's new "We Don't Trust You" album.
Dennis mocked Future and Metro for using beef to sell records and also convincing the homies to unfollow Drake on social media, knowing it would swirl in the headlines.
Ross and Nav both cut ties with Drake, at least on Instagram, leaving the OVO camp with a lot fewer allies than they had a few weeks ago!!!
Dennis never has issues blocking Drake from criticism, like he did when he spoke to TMZ Hip Hop about Drake's "For All The Dogs" album dodging any Israel-Hamas lyrics ... but it's possible everyone just has a problem with his son.
Future and Metro are expected to bring in big numbers next week atop the Billboard 200 and Kendrick's "Like That" diss is also a potential No. 1 record -- but all these guys have proven to move units without the feuding.
