Heading into Wrestlemania 40, Becky Lynch came face-to-face with Dominik Mysterio and then WWE Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley on the March 25 episode of Monday Night Raw. This segment acted as the hype-up to the already announced WWE Women’s World Championship matchup set between the two female talents of the company.
Dominik Mysterio interjected himself between the two of them as he was trying to protect her on-screen girlfriend, Ripley. Unfortunately for Mysterio, his attempt to calm things between the two resulted in Becky Lynch punching him right in the jaw. The segment appeared to be highly entertaining for the WWE Universe which also gave birth to several meme and reel fests, online.
