How to write a character over another character
Range symbol over characterSubstitute a character by another one (Lualatex)In LyX, is it possible to customize the special characters (specifically symbols)?Using imported font with XeLaTeX - several latin letters for one font symbolCreate a font table for all available characters for a particular fontCreating a custom character that automatically adjusts size in math mode?How/Where to find such special symbol/character?Use specific non-unicode character in lualatexHow to insert a dashed line over a bigwedge symbol so that the dashed line behaves like overline would?Modify characters of mt2pro[lite] using TimesUniform convergence symbol (arrow on top of arrow, same size)Range symbol over character
How can I write two characters in the same place?
In particular, I want to write an arrow $rightarrow$, and then write a letter such that the arrow strikes through the letter. I found some similar questions (Range symbol over character, Substitute a character by another one (Lualatex), etc.) but they are not exactly the same question.

Since an arrow is wider than almost every character, what do you plan to do with the excess?

A simple but probably naive way isrlap{$rightarrow$}x. Like egreg wrote, you need to figure out which way the excess should go. Note that theadjustboxpackage give further ways to lap content to all directions.

Not clear if you want it in text or math...
documentclass{article}
usepackage{stackengine}
begin{document}
In testackengine{0pt}{x}{$rightarrow$}{O}{c}{F}{T}{L}t...
$ensurestackMath{stackengine{0pt}{y}{rightarrow}{O}{c}{F}{T}{L}} = mx + b$
end{document}
Also, it is not clear if you want the arrow's width to be accounted for:
documentclass{article}
usepackage{stackengine}

In testackengine{0pt}{x}{$rightarrow$}{O}{c}{F}{F}{L}t...
$ensurestackMath{stackengine{0pt}{y}{rightarrow!}{O}{c}{F}{F}{L}} = mx + b$
end{document}
Other things that can be easily adjusted above include horizontal alignment (currently centered) as well as vertical height of arrow placement (currently placed at its natural height).
Once the specifics are decided on the use case, this can be easily encapsulated in a macro.
Below, keeping up with the egregs, I implement a macro version (overarrow) for math that preserves the math style:
