Becky Lynch returned to action during the women’s WarGames match at the namesake premium live event, leading Bianca Belair’s team to victory over Damage CTRL, Rhea Ripley, and Nikki Cross. The winning spot saw ‘Big Time Becks’ ascend to the top of the cage, executing a mammoth Legdrop on both Dakota Kai and IYO SKY to send them through a table below.
Discussing the awe-inspiring spot during the Survivor Series: WarGames post-show press conference, Becky Lynch hilariously used some Eminem lyrics to describe how she was feeling:
“I climbed up [the cage]. I wanted to see the height of it. And my palms were sweaty…knees weak, arm spaghetti. There was no vomit on my sweater already. But when you have the feeling of the crowd and the energy of the crowd, I feel like anything is possible. It’s the people that let you feel like you’re a superhero and make you feel like you’re a superhero, and so then you become a superhero.”
Becky Lynch entered her first WarGames match as the final member of her team and the last competitor overall to enter the two-ring environment.

Becky Lynch Returned On WWE SmackDown
Having last appeared during the August 1 broadcast of Monday Night Raw, Becky Lynch made her return to WWE programming during the go-home Friday Night SmackDown ahead of Survivor Series. Bianca Belair, the captain of a team including herself, Mia Yim, Asuka, and Alexa Bliss, had previously touted the reveal of their fifth member ahead of the latest blue brand broadcast.
‘The Man’ had been out of action since being felled by Belair, the defending Raw Women’s Champion, at SummerSlam, separating her shoulder in the process. Fightful Select reported a week before Survivor Series: WarGames that she was expected back “soon” and had been tentatively planned as the fifth member of Bianca’s team.
