Becky Lynch bested Charlotte Flair for the SmackDown Women’s Championship this past Sunday at the WWE Hell in a Cell pay-per-view event … and now it was time to celebrate.
With SmackDown LIVE General Manager Paige in the ring, Becky promised she would be the star of the blue brand now that she is champion, excused Paige from the squared circle and called out The Queen.
Although Flair was already eyeing their championship rematch at WWE Super Show-Down, the former titleholder showed humility in defeat and congratulated Lynch on being the better Superstar this past Sunday. Lynch was in no mood for mutual respect, however, and she continued to degrade Charlotte before telling her former best friend to raise her hand in victory.
Charlotte declined that offer and a subsequent one to put the title around Lynch’s waist. Flair couldn’t believe the audacity of Becky’s requests, especially the third one: Lynch wanted Charlotte to call her Queen … and then Lynch called her something else. Aww heck nah.
Lynch’s disrespect prompted Charlotte to lunge at the new champion, but The Irish Lass Kicker got the best of the exchange when the fight spilled outside the ring, throwing Charlotte over the announce table, tossing her back into the squared circle and locking in the Dis-arm-her before continuing the attack with a Bexploder for good measure.
The royal hierarchy on the blue brand may be changing.
