2. Becky Lynch vs. Mandy Rose vs. Sonya Deville

For the second year in a row, there will be a women’s Money in the Bank ladder match next month with the opportunity of a lifetime at stake.  One of the women that competed in both women’s Money in the Bank ladder matches last year tried to earn the right to join the upcoming one last night.

Becky Lynch hasn’t done much of anything lately, often being booked to take the pins in multi-women matches or just singles matches.  But last night saw Lynch battle Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville in a Triple Threat Match with the winner going on to join the women’s Money in the Bank ladder match.

The match was very solid with all three competitors impressing.  The allies of Rose and Deville were on the same page initially, but ended up turning on each other mid-match with both looking to advance to Money In The Bank.  But as it turned out, Rose and Deville’s competition towards each other spelled doom for either women’s chance to win the match.

The Irish Lass Kicker took advantage and made Rose tap out to win the match.  Lynch finally got a win and some momentum after weeks of losing matches and she will now vie for the Money in the Bank contract.  Whether Lynch wins or not, last night’s match did a lot for all three women who competed their tails off and greatly impressed.

Lynch can make history at Money In The Bank, but alongside Rose and Deville last night, the three put on an impressive match.

Final Grade: B+
