After winning the 2019 Women’s Royal Rumble, Becky Lynch didn’t waste time with who she wanted to face at WrestleMania 35. Lynch showed up on Raw last Monday and challenged Ronda Rousey for the Raw Women’s Championship.
WWE announced Saturday that Stephanie McMahon has invited Becky Lynch to Raw tonight. Here is WWE.com’s preview:
“2019 Women’s Royal Rumble Winner and SmackDown LIVE Superstar Becky Lynch, who will challenge Ronda Rousey for the Raw Women’s Championship at WrestleMania, has been invited to Raw by Stephanie McMahon.
“This past Monday night, The Man made her decision to challenge The Baddest Woman on the Planet, sparking a heated exchange with The Rowdy One. Despite suffering an apparent knee injury from Charlotte Flair the following night on the blue brand, Lynch remains confident in her ability to unseat Rousey on The Grandest Stage of Them All.
What might Stephanie have in store for The Irish Lass Kicker?”
The war of words between Lynch and Rousey continued to heat up via Twitter, with “The Man” laying a heavy shot.
Enough though I’ve had just 6 singles PPV matches since my WWE debut (Ronnie has 7) – I’ve changed this whole damn business. Overrated? The Man is underrated af. pic.twitter.com/iNmw7uFP39

Rousey responded to Lynch:
Unlike you I don’t give a damn about my reputation or how I’m rated. You claim you’re carrying the @WWE, but all you do is cut promos about me, give interviews about me, and tweet me…you need me to have a real chance to get that main event spot at #WrestleMania and you know it.

Lynch replied:
Of course, you dope. I run/limp towards the biggest threats in my business, unlike you did in yours. pic.twitter.com/pgQAn7GCKr
