Rumor Roundup: Backstage Notes On Becky Lynch’s Win Over Bianca Belair, John Cena’s Future, More

1) Backstage Notes On Becky Lynch’s Win Over Bianca Belair

According to Mike Johnson of PWinsider, it was Vince McMahon’s call to have Becky Lynch beat Bianca Belair at Summerslam in less than a minute. Some people in the company expressed concern about how this would make Bianca look but Vince wanted it to be a moment for Becky.

Here is what Johnson wrote:

“We are told it was 100% a Vince McMahon call and the title switch to Lynch was specifically to make her return even more spectacular. It should be noted that the quick nature of the match (27 seconds) was seen by a number of fans as taking the wind out of the sails of Bianca Belair, but we are told that even though some in the company expressed that concern, the idea was that the moment was about Lynch per Vince McMahon’s vision of the PPV.”

My Take:

  • I am thrilled to see Becky back. While saying that, I do think that they could have made Bianca look better.
