According to John Pollack of POST Wrestling, WWE’s original plans for Becky Lynch weren’t what they currently are. Creative’s idea for her was supposed to angle her as a heel, but that was pivoted after their Brooklyn stay due to the reaction she was getting. Pollack also has some info on what’s ahead character-wise for Charlotte:

I spoke with someone regarding Becky Lynch and the direction she is going. At SummerSlam, it was designed to turn Becky into a heel, however after the reaction that week in Brooklyn they decided to adjust and make it more about Becky and Charlotte’s issues with one another rather than making Becky a strong heel. The directive at the time was that Becky was a ‘Stone Cold’ type of character knowing she would be cheered, however, we are told that has somewhat changed. Internally, Becky is technically considered a heel, although she isn’t generally being received as one by the public. There are no plans to make Charlotte Flair a heel coming out of this.
