The former RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch is striving to reclaim her WWE RAW Women’s title. It turns out WWE already has major plans for her at this year’s SummerSlam.
Becky Lynch is likely to get another title opportunity
Becky lost her RAW Women’s Championship to Bianca Belair at WrestleMania 38. At Hell in a Cell 2022, she competed in a triple threat match for the title, also involving Asuka, but couldn’t win it. Belair stole a win after pinning Asuka.
On the latest Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer reported that WWE is holding off for the big one-on-one rematch between Lynch and Belair, and it might happen at this year’s SummerSlam:
“I would figure that’s SummerSlam [Becky Lynch vs Bianca Belair]. It was very clear that they were holding that match off for a while. I don’t think they’re going to wait for Mania because they don’t have the depth, probably, to wait til Mania. But, I figure they’ll wait to SummerSlam for that and that’s why they didn’t do it here.”
Meltzer further added that Lynch was initially not planning to compete against Belair at Hell in a Cell. But WWE then had to change its plans:
“Really, they didn’t even want Becky in the match here. It was just one of those things where, and I was a little bit surprised, because I figured, eh, just go with a singles match with Asuka, but for whatever reason, they decided instead to go with a three way.”
On the latest edition of Monday Night RAW, ‘Big Time Becks’ went up against Dana Brooke for the WWE 24/7 Championship. However, she was once again unsuccessful in her attempt as Asuka interfered to cost her the match.
