The Irish lady seemed elated with this win as she appeared in a backstage conversation following her match at Wrestlemania 36. While noting on the match, she has the following to say about her opponent,

“Look she’s incredible. I never underestimated her, I think she underestimated me, but the fact of the matter is that she’s been a top-ranked cage fighter for 10 years straight. She’s the longest combined Women’s NXT Champion in history. Her skill set is maybe, maybe un-matched in what we have in WWE today, but the fact of the matter is, tonight was a test of skill over heart, and I’ve got the heart.”

WWE later announced that the RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch will appear on ESPN SportsCenter this Sunday morning at 10:15 am ET on the US time zone. The Man will be seen discussing her win over Shayna Baszler from Night One of WrestleMania 36.
