WWE Raw kicked off with the man of the hour, Seth Rollins who was all smiling after his successful title defense at Stomping Grounds. His girlfriend, Becky Lynch was not far behind to join him inside the ring. They received a loud pop from the audience which soon turned into loud boos as Lacey Evans showed up. She pounced on Becky Lynch to create a brawl on WWE Raw. The champion stood tall by throwing Evans away with a Bexploder Suplex.

Sooner, Baron Corbin appeared on the ramp complaining how Becky Lynch saved Seth Rollins from losing the title at Stomping Grounds. So he proposed a tag team match at Extreme Rules where he will team up with Lacey to take on the team of the power couple of the WWE. The added stipulation for the bout would be both the men and women’s titles will be on the line. The champions obliged as WWE.com made the match official,
“Evans and Corbin attacked The Man and her man the following night on Raw, before challenging them to a Mixed Tag Team Match at WWE Extreme Rules. Rollins and Lynch accepted on the condition that, if they won, they will never have to see their adversaries in the ring together ever again. This was a stipulation Corbin & Evans would agree to, provided that both the Universal and Raw Women’s Titles would be on the line.
It will be Winners Take All at WWE Extreme Rules, Sunday, July 14 at 7 ET / 4 PT on the award-winning WWE Network.”

WWE pulled off an incredibly popular move by the end of Stomping Grounds PPV by bringing Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch together. The real-life couple finally met inside the ring to perform in a segment where WWE had accepted their relationship. This ended the pay-per-view on a happy note. But most importantly, we received indications that they might feature in a future storyline, too.
WWE previously used real-life couples into storyline angles. But perhaps no such couple started performing together on such a quick notice just to garner attention of the audience. Lately, both Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch have been open about their relation, as well. So the question heading into WWE Raw was whether we will be seeing them together on TV.
WWE moved one step forward with their angle as they have now inserted them straight into the Extreme Rules main event. With both the titles from WWE Raw on the line, this one should be an interesting contest at the upcoming PPV. Plus, it’s also a nice way to make the fans invested in the storyline between Rollins and Corbin.
