WWE RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch recently discussed the awkward moment between her and Charlotte Flair where they had to switch belts on television.
Speaking on The Broken Skull Sessions, Lynch explained how the segment went completely off-script and how it lead to issues backstage.
‘It should’ve been easy,’ Lynch began. ‘It should’ve been a straightforward thing. We were supposed to exchange the titles.
“I grab it out of her hand unknowingly, I’m ’˜Becky Two Belts’ for a second then I toss her the title, then she tells Sonya (Deville) to pick it up, then she challenges me to a fight, and I back out of it and I go. So everybody was supposed to get their moment there” Lynch continued.
‘I told some people that this isn’t what’s going to happen,’ Lynch noted. ‘When I try to grab it, she’s going to drop it, and that’s what happened.
“And so, when all that was going on, I was just fuming. Mostly because I knew in advance that was what was going to win and I had no way to stop it. And anyway we talked about going into business for yourself and I lost my head a bit” Becky concluded.
