Coronavirus is affecting the whole world and WWE is also feeling the effects of the same. The company has moved some of its shows to the Performance Center though they have not cancelled any major events yet.
This means that the WWE stars are still on the road but if we believe the current Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch, there haven’t been any major changes in the locker room due to the outbreak of the disease.
The current Champion was recently interviewed by TVInsider and when asked about the environment backstage, she explained that the business is being conducted as usual:
“It’s business as usual. I think we’re constantly meeting different people. We’re constantly shaking hands. We know to use hand sanitizer.” said Becky Lynch “We’re always exposed to so many different bacteria in our lives and so many different countries. You can’t freak out about any of this stuff. You have to continue on and hope for the best.”
The Raw Women’s Champion was also asked about the difference between Ronda Rousey and her WrestleMania opponent Shayna Baszler and Becky Lynch claimed that the former NXT Champion is a ‘different animal.’
She mentioned how Baszler has been wrestling longer and claimed that we haven’t really seen her full potential on Raw. You can check out Becky Lynch’s full interview at this link.
WWE Hall of Famer Booker T recently shared his support in WWE’s decision to book Roman Reigns vs Goldberg at WrestleMania 36. However, during a recent episode of his podcastThe Hall of Fame, Booker T remained unconvinced about another headline matchup: Shayna Baszler vs Becky Lynch.
“I’m not sold on it. I’ll just say that. I’m not sold on it yet,” he confessed. “But I’m like this man. I’m thinking about the performance more than anything, I’m thinking about when you go out and perform, you know, in Elimination Chamber…WrestleMania. Those are big moments for me. Going into a match like that. I trust Becky Lynch. Becky has done a lot of good things over this last year, she’s put herself in position to, you know, be called ‘the man.’”
Booker T On Becky Lynch’s Past Opponents
Booker T noted how Lynch has been performing at a consistent quality against “really, really high calibre talent.” Booker T then pointed towards her matches with both Charlotte Flair and Sasha Banks, adding how they can “go out there and really perform [at the] next level.”
“Now I’m wondering, Becky Lynch against Shayna Baszler. You know, how is that thing gonna go? How are they going to match up? As far as going out there and creating some beautiful magic? Because at the end of the day it really is all about Shakespeare. It really is all about going out there and performing for the fans.”

WWE RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch has addressed Shayna Baszler’s “dirty” tactics during a recent conversation with Pro Wrestling Sheet. Their issues stem from last week’s episode of Monday Night RAW, which saw Baszler attack Lynch from behind following her successful championship defense over Asuka. Baszler would proceed to remove her mouth guard before biting into the back of Lynch’s neck. It wasn’t long until her mouth was covered in the champion’s blood.
“She’s tough. She did a lot for women in MMA. I don’t think she gets nearly enough credit for what she’s done in that,” Lynch said. “She’s been in NXT making a name for herself the past few years, but last night she wanted to make a name for herself against me.”
She continued, “If she wanted an opportunity, all she had to do was ask, she didn’t have to take a chunk out of the back of my neck, but if that’s the way it’s going to be, well then that’s the way it’s going to be. She can fight dirty… I can fight a lot dirtier.”
Becky Lynch and Shayna Baszler are expected to build towards a RAW Women’s Championship match at WrestleMania 36. The event takes place on April 5th from Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida.

Simone Johnson, the 18-year-old daughter of Dwayne “the Rock” Johnson has signed with WWE. WWE RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch offered up some advice for Johnson when reporters from TMZ caught up with her recently.
“Work hard, work as hard as you possibly can,” Lynch said when asked if she had any advice for Johnson. “Work harder than everybody else.”
“The thing is it’s going to be a lot of pressure on her,” Becky Lynch continued. “There is big shoes to fill, she’s going to feel that, she’s going to know that everybody expects a lot more from her and that she is going to be under a lot more criticism than everybody else.”
“She doesn’t get that chance, that slack-line that other people might get but I think she’s up for the challenge and I think that tests you, that makes you into the woman that you want to be and to be a champion. And hey, whenever she’s ready I’ll be holding down the fort. I’ll still be holding onto this whenever she’s ready.”
“I think it’ll be good for her to try and make her own way, don’t rely on the past, don’t rely on what got other people over, try to make something new for yourself. I think there’s merit in that,” Lynch said about Johnson blazing her own path.
Lynch’s comments can be viewed in the full with the player below:
WWE Hall of Famer and co-host of Busted Open Radio Bully Ray recently commented on the ‘biting’ angle that took place on this Monday’s RAW. Part way through the broadcast NXT Superstar Shayna Baszler attacked Becky Lynch. This was following her match with Asuka. Baszler would bite the back of Lynch’s neck at the conclusion of the bout, shocking many as it was such a departure from her character in NXT.
“‘you were expecting Rhonda? You got much worse, you got Shayna Baszler”
Bully mentioned as much, saying “I would have liked less is more and keep it simple. Play to Shayna’s strengths. I almost would have liked to [have] seen at the end of the segment, you know Shana standing over Becky, and you could have got one line out of her where she could have told Becky ‘you were expecting Rhonda? You got much worse, you got Shayna Baszler.’
“Was I shocked? Yeah was I shocked, but in a good way? I’m really not sure.”
Ray also talked about how the bite itself ‘was’ shocking, but not necessarily in a good way. “The biting thing just kind of takes me out of it. Was I shocked? Yeah was I shocked, but in a good way? I’m really not sure.”
“To me the last person that needed anything was Shayna Baszler”
Bully also questioned how the company’s Creative came to give Shayna Baszler this extra wrinkle in her character. “They [creative] probably said ‘we need something for Shayna, we need something different. We need something shocking, we need her to do something that is going to have people talking. She can’t just beat up Becky, that’s passe.’ To me the last person that needed anything was Shayna. Because she’s such a credible badass, she acts it, she walks in, she talks it. But in the world of the WWE, if you’re just a ‘wrestler’ or if you’re just a fighter? They’re probably going to look to tinker with you and and give you ‘something.'”
Do you think that Shayna Baszler will be using the ‘biting’ gimmick going forward? Let us know in the comments
WWE RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch has responded to Jon Jones’ recent comments. The current UFC Light Heavyweight Champion expressed his belief that it was “inevitable” that he would eventually be in a WWE ring. Addressing Jones’ words during a recent appearance, Lynch stressed how being a pro wrestler isn’t as easy as most MMA fighters believe it to be.
“Inevitable? That is a pretty big word. Look, I think people think that this is a cakewalk, there is nothing like what we do,” Lynch stated. “And it’s not as simple as just walking in here. You have to make a name for yourself, and you have to obsessed with it, you have to love this. This isn’t a thing where you have one fight every six months, this is a thing where you are fighting three, four, sometimes seven days a week, 52 weeks a year.”
She continued, “For people to sometimes think that it’s an easy thing that they can just stroll into, it kind of irks me. It irks me, it does. Because I love this business, I love it more than anything. And if he loves it like I do, well then come along, I’ll show you the ropes. But if he just wants to make some easy money, this ain’t the way to do it.”
When asked which UFC fighter would translate best to WWE, Becky Lynch was quick to point to Conor McGregor. She noted how most of his personality is borrowed from pro wrestling anyway, including his strut. Lynch added how McGregor “gets it,” especially from a promo, talking perspective.

Becky Lynch recently did an interview with TV Insider to talk about a wide range of topics.
In the interview, the WWE RAW Women’s Champion talked about how much money she should be making. This is where Lynch made some interesting comments including why she thinks she should earn more than WWE Chairman and CEO Vince McMahon.
“I should be making more in that whole company, everybody — Vince McMahon included. I want to change the game.
I want to prove that it doesn’t matter your gender, your race, your background, if you are doing the job and keeping people invested if you are keeping people interested, then you deserve to be paid at a level higher than anybody else.”
Lynch added or high as the best of them because when she looks around the arenas and the majority of the people are in her shirts.
She added that the majority of people hold signs for her. Thus, she thinks that WWE should pay her as such and that will be the way it will be.
Lynch makes her latest title defense as RAW Women’s Champion against Asuka on Monday’s episode of RAW in Ontario, CA at the Toyota Arena.
Becky Lynch is still the WWE RAW Women’s Champion as she went over Asuka to retain the championship.
Lynch did so as she beat the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion at the WWE Royal Rumble pay-per-view event from the Minute Maid Park in Houston, Texas.
They had been feuding as of late on WWE television including Lynch teaming up with Charlotte Flair that saw them suffer a defeat to Sane and Asuka at the WWE TLC pay-per-view event in Minneapolis, Minnesota at the Target Center earlier this month. This was the first-ever Women’s TLC Tag Team Title Match.
Asuka submitted Lynch to retain the title at the 2019 Royal Rumble pay-per-view event at Chase Field in Phoenix which took place in front of a capacity crowd of 48,193.
The feud in a one-on-one capacity kicked up when Lynch cut a recent promo about how she wanted to face Asuka, which also saw her bring up how there are some people who think Asuka has her number since she’s never beat her before.
WWE RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch appeared on WWE Backstage this week where she made headlines.
She did so when she spoke about why she thinks “Women’s” should be removed from the women’s division. In fact, she thinks everything associated with it should be removed.
Since then, news came out that WWE officials have reportedly issued an internal memo that says the WWE NXT Women’s Title should be known as the NXT Title moving forward.
Lynch took to her official Twitter account to send out a statement in order to clarify her comments that she made on WWE Backstage. She wrote the following:
“I wasn’t advocating for any changes in title names or anything else (like I’d have the power)—but simply an equal volume of opportunities that are based on skill, and not gender.
The term ‘women’ can limit openings because phrases like, ‘there’s already a women’s match on the show’ is still in wrestling’s historical DNA.
We’re all just Superstars who want our shots and places on the shows if we earn and deserve them. I’d simply love us to get to a place where there’s three ‘women’s matches’ on PPV, or ten… or none if it so happens we’re not serving the audience.”
Lynch will make her next title defense against Asuka at this Sunday’s Royal Rumble pay-per-view event in Houston, Texas at the Minute Maid Park live on the WWE Network.
WWE Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch reflected on the historic main event of last year’s WrestleMania and revealed one thing that she would change from it.
Lynch talked toSports Illustrated for an interview and revealed that she would have liked to make Ronda Rousey tap for the first time in her life.
“If I could change anything from WrestleMania, I would have tried to freakin’ sink on that arm bar,” said Lynch. “Make Ronda Rousey tap out for the first time in her life.”
It was still all good though, as Becky Lynch pinned Rousey to win the match and become “Becky Two Belts”.
Lynch also became the first woman in WWE history to be on the cover of the WWE 2K video game, alongside with Roman Reigns. Becky says it was a risk being controversial and outspoken but it paid off and proved that anything is possible.
“It’s unbelievable to be on the cover of WWE 2K20, it means anything is possible,” said Lynch. “We’ve never had a woman on the cover, so it proves that taking risks pays off. It was a risk for me to be more controversial and outspoken, trying to rile up people as opposed to trying to befriend people.”
Lynch also talked about Reigns and she said that she has admiration for what Reigns went through, surviving leukemia. Lynch said she considers Reigns an inspirational role model.
Lynch will defend the Raw Women’s Championship against Asuka at the upcoming Royal Rumble pay-per-view event on Sunday, January 26. The event will emanate from the Minute Maid Park in Houston, Texas.
Becky Lynch has denied the report going around online that states she has in fact signed a new deal with WWE.
Dave Meltzer reported in the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that Lynch signed a deal for $1 million annually last year. As of late, WWE has been signing talent to contracts for five years and it’s believed that Lynch’s deal was that length as well.
Becky Lynch Denies Report
On television, the RAW Women’s Champion has claimed that she was waiting to sign a new contract before she got her match with Asuka. This is pure storyline.
It should be noted that Lynch has stated in the past that “nothing but work” gets done on social media, which was a hint at all the posts on her Twitter account is in-character at all times.
Becky Lynch took to her Twitter account where she denied the report. She also noted that she hasn’t signed anything in years. She wrote the following:
“Report not true. Haven’t signed anything new in years. Deal coming up soon.”

This bout will see Lynch put her RAW Women’s Title on the line against Asuka, who is currently one-half of the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions along with Kairi Sane.
Asuka vs. Becky Lynch
This match was expected as it was reported earlier this month that the contest was on the books to take place at the first pay-per-view event of the new year for the company.
Lynch cut a recent promo about how she wanted to face Asuka, which also saw her bring up how there are some people who think Asuka has her number since she’s never beat her before.

News has surfaced regarding one title match at the upcoming Royal Rumble pay-per-view event.
Dave Meltzer reported in the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that a match between Asuka and WWE RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch is in the works for the Royal Rumble pay-per-view event.
This comes after Lynch cut a recent promo about how she wanted to face Asuka, which also saw her bring up how there are some people who think Asuka has her number since she’s never beat her before.
Per the report, the idea was that Asuka defeating Lynch earlier this year was supposed to lead to Asuka challenging her following WrestleMania.
That changed once the program was dropped. It turns out that Paul Heyman, who serves as the RAW Executive Director, came up with the idea to restart it and to have it happen at the Rumble.
For those who may have forgotten, Asuka submitted Lynch to retain the title at the 2019 Royal Rumble pay-per-view event at Chase Field in Phoenix which took place in front of a capacity crowd of 48,193.
WWE has already confirmed the Minute Maid Park in Houston, Texas will host the Royal Rumble on Sunday, January 26, 2020.
The event will mark WWE’s debut at Minute Maid Park. Minute Maid Park has a maximum capacity of over 40,000 people. WWE has yet to announce any matches for this upcoming show.
The belief is that the company will start to do so once the new year is ringed in as typically December is a slow month for WWE.
Backstage News On NXT’s Involvement Into Royal Rumble 2020
The first-ever Women’s TLC Tag Team Match is in the books.
WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions The Kabuki Warriors made their latest title defense against RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch & Charlotte Flair at the WWE TLC pay-per-view event in Minneapolis, Minnesota at the Target Center on the WWE Network.

What are your thoughts on The Kabuki Warriors retaining the Women’s Tag Team Titles? Was this the right call by WWE officials? Sound off in the comment section.
Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch have some tension between them which has become apparent recently since they started tagging together.
On WWE After The Bell, Corey Graves had commented that Charlotte has been “going through the motions” in her current program with Becky Lynch on Raw. While he was criticized for his comments by fans, Charlotte defended him and appeared on this week’s podcast to address the comments.
Charlotte talked about the disconnect between her and her partner Lynch. She said that it would be unrealistic to expect from her to only be featured in main event stories on WWE.
Charlotte revealed that she was fine with this and she works as needed for the progress of a storyline.
Regarding her friendship with Becky Lynch, The Queen told the podcast that her character is an evil queen and she does not need friends. Charlotte is someone who thinks she’s above everyone else, and that’s where the disconnect between the two is.
Corey Graves had suggested that women are not receiving as much attention as they used to in the company. To this, Charlotte Flair defended the company against these allegations and said that the creative team is doing a great job of writing storylines for female wrestlers, which enable the performers to attract and engage fans with the audiences.
As reported before, Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch were guests at the Gorilla Position Live event in London, where they answered several fan questions.
A question was posed to Seth Rollins, regarding his future WWE Hall of Fame induction. Rollins was asked who he would like to get inducted by into the HOF. He thought for a few seconds and said “Maybe Triple H.”
Part 7. This is where I say tripping over the barricade when seth couldn't decide what his most embarrassing moment on TV was n he said oh yeah that one lmaooo.
Seth Rollins and Triple H has had quite a bit of history between them. Back in 2014, Rollins betrayed his brethren of the Shield and turned on Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose. He then joined Triple H and became the corporate star.
Rollins was on top of the company because of his alliance with Triple H, until Triple H turned on Rollins and helped Kevin Owens win the Universal Championship. Triple H labelled Rollins as an abject failure despite of all the chances he was given. This culminated into a match at WrestleMania 33, which Rollins won.
On Gorilla Position, the duo were asked many other questions. They were asked who their current crush was, to which Becky Lynch replied named Jeff Hardy. Host James Delow mocked Rollins by saying “Seth said Finn Balor”, and The Architect jokingly agreed to it. He also said that Jeff Hardy is his crush too.
Meanwhile Rollins was also asked who he thinks will induct Lynch into the Hall of Fame. Becky named Finn Balor, and Rollins replied to her answer in a jovial vein by replying that he thought it was Charlotte Flair who would induct her.
Former Universal Champion Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch appeared as guests on Gorilla Position Live in London. They both answered a bunch of questions from fans and Rollins shared an amusing interaction that he had with Vince McMahon regarding Becky Lynch, which almost led him to think that he might have to fight his boss.
Rollins revealed that McMahon was interested in knowing if his girlfriend Lynch had gotten a tan after vacationing in Hawaii together.
“So my story with Vince is a recent one, there are so many to pick from, but actually it involves her. So, we took like our first vacation ever. Actually it’s where I proposed to her. We spent two weeks in Hawaii, which, ah, amazing. We hadn’t taken a Monday off in, ever, right? So we took a Monday off for a vacation, and when we came back, I was sitting with Vince. We were talking about something and we were done, and I was about to leave, and he goes, ‘Can I ask you a personal question? Did Becky get a tan?’ I was like, ‘Yeah she’ll tell you, she identifies as a tan person now.’ She got a great tan in Hawaii, but yeah just the way he phrased it, I was like, ‘Oh no, how is this going to go. Am I gonna fight Vince McMahon right now?'”
While Rollins didn’t state what the boss’ intentions were behind the question, but the fact that no confrontation happened between the two suggests that McMahon didn’t mean any harm by the comment.
You can watch Seth tell the story in the video below:

The contest served as the main event of Sunday’s (November 24, 2019) WWE Survivor Series pay-per-view event in Chicago, Illinois at the Allstate Arena on the WWE Network.
Baszler ended up winning the non-title triple threat match. As a result of this win, Baszler has all of the bragging rights. This marked the first time that the women’s champion from NXT was featured in the main event match of Survivor Series.
It’s interesting that it was featured among all of the interbrand matches at what is considered one of the big four events of the year for WWE along with WrestleMania, Royal Rumble, and SummerSlam.
WWE set up this match when they had Baszler invade the infamous November 1st episode of Friday Night SmackDown to attack Bayley. Since then, the women have appeared on episodes of each brand.
