Becky Lynch looks set for a busy night come next month's Money in the Bank, as WWE last night confirmed a huge pair of matches for the event.

In addition to her previously scheduled Raw Women's Title defence against Lacey Evans, the Champ Champ will put her SmackDown belt on the line opposite Charlotte Flair.

The Queen interrupted a Lynch promo on yesterday's episode of the blue brand, spouting that she was owed a rematch considering Becky only pinned Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania. Then her diatribe was impeded by Bayley, who espoused the merits of a title shot of her own.

The pair later faced off for the right to challenge the champ; Charlotte prevailed to earn an opportunity to regain her belt at Money in the Bank.

Earlier in the show, it was confirmed that Roman Reigns will meet Elias at WWE's next pay-per-view. Shane McMahon threatened to fire Reigns if he didn't come to the ring during the show's opening promo. Suitably chastened, The Big Dog showed up - only to be blindsided by the songster.

Elias directly challenged Reigns to a Money in the Bank match through the medium of song later in the night, which was accepted.

Money in the Bank is scheduled for 19 May from Hartford, CT's XL Center.
