WWE Monday Night Raw begins with Becky Lynch making her way out! Says no more treading water, she now finally knows who her WrestleMania opponent is. Shayna Baszler, the cagefighter. Some heat for that. We then of course cut to a vignette of Shayna running through absolutely everyone last night, concluding with a little promo where she says she’ll do the same to Becky at WrestleMania and also calls her a bitch. As we come back there’s a chant of “Becky”.
Becky says Shayna cut through the whole division, including the person it took her an entire year to beat. Puts her over for pioneering women’s MMA, dominating NXT and also being a total scumbag. Becky responds to her comments saying she may be a bitch, but she’s the bitch who runs this division. That line got a big pop. Derides her for refusing to shake her hand after WrestleMania last year.
Notes that she used to just think of her as the constipated looking robot in NXT, calls her a black hole of charisma. Says Shayna has been hiding in the shadows for over a year trying to rewrite history, because normal people like her don’t beat trained killers like you. Except she does, she did. She believes in her bones that Shayna is discounting her, underestimating her. For that, she will smash her face in. With that, she hoists up her title and soaks in the adulation before making her leave.
Amazingly, no interruption or brawl or match being made.
Becky just, came out and cut her promo and left. I’m a little baffled, you just don’t see that everyday in WWE. I guess they wanna wait on having Shayna fight back, maybe they’ll be conservative with how often they use her to keep from exposing her. And since the entire division is now deceased following the Elimination Chamber match, there really isn’t anyone else in any kind of position to give Becky the business.
We then see Rey Mysterio backstage… wait for it… WALKING~! He’s got a big match against Angel Garza up next, set to be the opening bout of the evening. Should be noted that Rey was one of the three men in this angle to be Hammerlock DDT’d onto concrete and put out for several weeks in the process. That match is up next…
