TACOMA, Wash. — After months of animosity and high-octane scraps, Becky Lynch kept Lacey Evans at bay to retain the Raw Women’s Championship in a brutal battle at WWE Stomping Grounds.
A steady dose of trash talk and a fiery scrap at the onset assured that the title fight wouldn’t be short on haymakers. Lynch out-grappled The Sassy Southern Bell in the early goings and beat her to the literal punch several times. The Lady of WWE struck back by targeting Becky’s mid-section after she swiftly kicked the Raw Women’s Champion into the announcer’s table.
From there, Lacey systematically tore Lynch apart, keeping her grounded at will and applying ample pressure. Though she was in obvious pain, Becky continually attempted to battle back and finally found substantial daylight when Evans got a little too comfortable mocking The Man, as Becky stuffed Lacey’s handkerchief into the challenger’s mouth moments after Evans used it to wipe her armpits and threw it at Becky.
The Scarlet Spitfire then strung together several high-impact maneuvers and evaded several of Lacey’s, and the champion sealed the victory by locking in the Dis-arm-her for an impressive tap-out victory.
