Becky Lynch gets attacked again

Becky Lynch is serenaded by what she calls “the voices of angels”, singing her theme song and chanting “Becky!” upon her first entrance on HER show as “Becky Two Belts”.

She notes that her titles are both “two big targets”, recalling Lacey Evans’s stiff punch on the Monday Night Raw after WrestleMania. Lynch says a “tsunami” of challengers will come after her, and she’s ready to take on all of them.

Becky wants to make her run as “double champ” the most talked-about run in history, and she’s willing to sleep with one eye open for the rest of her career.

After her promo, Becky struts out of the ring before holding both titles high in the air.

And once again, Lacey Evans floors her with a punch. Expect THIS time, the Women’s Right sends Becky sprawling to the floor.

That was A+ selling from “The Man” as she tried to get to her feet, stumbling with a look of concern in her eyes at Evans giving her a much better punch. Evans vs. Lynch looks like a lock for the first title defense in The Man’s run as Becky Two Belts.

Grade: A-, This wasn’t one of Becky’s best promos, but it was still very good. And sure, there could be better challengers for Becky than Lacey Evans, but it’s fine to give her a soft opponent to start her reign, There’s also no harm in Evans losing a feud with Becky; it can help her get over.
