Becky Lynch returned to WWE at SummerSlam to a thunderous ovation. However, delight turned into dismay when she pinned SmackDown women’s champion, Bianca Belair in a matter of seconds.
The title win and the way it went down received a tonne of backlash from the fans. After the match, Lynch was interviewed backstage and simply said “The Man is back and it feels good.”
Now, according to PWInsider, they have confirmed with “multiple WWE sources” that Becky Lynch will be positioned as SmackDown’s top heel going forward. The report also states that she will feud with Bianca Belair.
Lynch worked heel briefly back in 2018 when she attacked her friend Charlotte Flair at SummerSlam of that year. However, the WWE Universe remained fully behind Lynch in her fight against the dominant and constantly pushed Flair.
The support Lynch received from the fans led to a change in direction and kicked off her meteoric rise as one of the biggest names in the industry.
