After Becky Lynch humiliated her, a veteran WWE star has clapped back.
The Man recently reignited one of her earliest rivalries in WWE on Monday Night RAW. First, she rejected Natalya’s challenge to a match. Instead, she offered the same to Nattie’s protege, Maxxine Dupri. Lynch then went on to defeat Dupri on August 11 on the red brand. After which, Big Time Becks brawled with Natalya, setting up their match for the August 18 episode, where the Women’s Intercontinental Championship will be on the line.
Ahead of their title clash, the challenger claimed that she would never stoop down to Becky’s level, referring to Lynch turning on her tag team partner the night after WrestleMania 41, and subsequently dethroning the latter to become Women’s Intercontinental Champion. The Man then humiliated her old rivalon Instagram when she called out Natalya for double standards, as the Canadian wrestler conveniently forgot–perhaps omitted–that it was the veteran who first turned on her, back in 2016 at the Money in the Bank PLE.
Natalya Refuses To Be Defined By Becky Lynch, Could The Veteran Outshine The Man?
The seasoned athletes seem to have a good grip on storytelling, as they have managed to build interest among fans on social media within such a short period. Natalya clapped back with a comment on Becky Lynch’s post mocking her.
Nattie stated that Becky Lynch does not get to define her.
You don’t get to dictate who the F**k I am,” wrote Natalya.
While out of left field for Lynch, this program has proved to be a resurgence for Nattie. Despite being a veteran of the industry, the Canadian has mostly been relegated to the background on WWE TV. But that was until she resumed her program with the reigning Women’s Intercontinental Champion.
Could Natalya finally win a WWE title for the first time in four years? We find out tonight on Monday Night RAW.
