Proving that revealed preference relation is the only relation that is rational and rationalizes the choice structure

The revealed preference relation is the only preference relation that is rational and rationalizes the choice structure that it was revealed from. It is unique.

How do I go about proving this? I thought of this but I have no Idea how to give a concrete proof. I just have an example using a decision from a set of 3:

$B: \{X, Y, Z\}\ C(B) = X$. Then the revealed preference relation we can derive from this choice structure is: $X >\geq Y$, $X \geq Z$. From this revealed preference relation, the only choice structure that we can derive from it is $\{X, Y, Z\}\ C(B) = X$.
