Becky Lynch Reveals 2022 SummerSlam Match With Bianca Belair Almost Didn’t Happen

Bianca Belair defeated Becky Lynch to retain the RAW Women’s Championship at WWE SummerSlam last year.

In an interview with Know Mercy, Lynch revealed that her SummerSlam match with Belair almost didn’t happen. The Man suffered a shoulder injury in the match that shelved her until Survivor Series. Lynch said,

“Last year, at SummerSlam, had to fight a little bit to get a women’s title match on the show. When Logan Paul has a match and Pat McAfee has a match, and Seth Rollins doesn’t have a match, he’s been working all year. Becky Lynch and Bianca Belair almost didn’t have a match, that’s a bit of a problem. Personally, and from a work ethic standpoint, you put all of this effort into this, all year round, and when the big shows come, the big stadiums come, and there are 80,000 people, you want to receive your flowers for the hard work you put in all year round so that we can do this so that we’re on TV for 52 weeks a year and just killing the game. You don’t want somebody to take your spot, not somebody who doesn’t do this all the time.“
