At WWE Elimination Chamber 2022, Becky Lynch is all set to defend her RAW Women’s Championship against Lita. The top female superstar going up against a WWE Hall of Famer will mark a generational clash, a dream match that’s becoming a reality. The two will collide at the premium live event next Saturday, February 19 in Saudi Arabia and WWE is on a full promotion spree about this upcoming match.
Lita and Becky have now been featuring on WWE billboards in the Saudi kingdom’s capital of Riyadh. This is a big deal in the middle-east country as WWE has been able to feature both the female superstars on a billboard without any male superstars, present on it.

Women in WWE have come a long way and they will certainly be the showcase for Elimination Chamber 2022. Apart from this match, a tag team match will also go down where Ronda Rousey will team up with Naomi to take on Smackdown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair and Sonya Deville. Plus, a Chamber match (Liv Morgan vs. Doudrop vs. Bianca Belair vs. Nikki ASH vs. Rhea Ripley vs. TBD) will feature to determine the next number-one contender to Raw Women’s Title.
However, Lita coming back to singles action should be the main attraction for Elimination Chamber 2022. She last held the WWE Women’s Championship in 2006 and lost it to the reigning Impact Knockouts World Champion Mickie James at the Survivor Series PPV event in 2006.
