Becky Lynch Vows To Eliminate Huge Star From WWE

Becky Lynch’s rival returned to WWE Raw after weeks of hiatus.

The February 9 edition of Monday Night Raw opened with Lynch spotting AJ Lee and CM Punk making their way into the arena backstage. This led Becky Lynch to kick off the show with an angry promo, where she was ranting about AJ’s return.

A few moments later, AJ Lee interrupted the segment and teased Becky Lynch for having a nervous breakdown. AJ reminded Becky that she already has victories over her at Wrestlepalooza and War Games, which means she is the number one contender and, technically, the rightful challenger for Becky’s Women’s Intercontinental Championship.

Lynch challenged AJ for a singles match, and AJ Lee accepted, but only on one condition: The Man had to put her title on the line. Lynch eventually caved to the pressure and accepted a title defense against AJ Lee for the Women’s Intercontinental Championship. The match is scheduled to take place at Elimination Chamber on February 28, 2026, in AJ’s hometown of Chicago.

Later on the show, AJ Lee came to Maxxine Dupri’s defense when Natalya attacked Maxxine even after she was disqualified from the match. While AJ Lee was busy helping Maxxine, Lynch blindsided her with a cheap attack.
