Becky Lynch became the WWE Women’s World Champion on WWE Raw, a couple of weeks ago and she is set for action as a champ in her seventh reign on this coming episode of the show. The announcement came during a commercial that aired on Friday’s SmackDown, though WWE did not reveal her opponent.
After Rhea Ripley announced herself to be injured a couple of weeks ago, the women’s world champion had to be vacated and WWE decided to fill up that spot by hosting a battle royal. The performers in that battle royal were Chelsea Green, Piper Niven, Natalya Neidhart, Nia Jax, Maxxine Dupri, Candice LeRae, Indi Hartwell, Katana Chance, Kayden Carter, Liv Morgan, Becky Lynch, Zoey Stark, Shayna Baszler and Ivy Nile with the winner becoming the new WWE Women’s World Champion.
