Lynch became more synonymous with the Raw Women's Title than the SmackDown version before falling pregnant last year. In fact, it was an incredible 825 days between reigns of that very belt for 'The Man'. She last held the blue strap at Money In The Bank 2019.

There, she dropped the thing to Charlotte Flair (who else?) on 19 May of that year. 825 days later, she had it in her hands again.

Not everyone was delighted to see Becky storm out and beat Bianca Belair in seconds to bag that SmackDown Women's Title. One guy in the aisle way was rather disappointed looking, and repeatedly glared over at the fallen champ with a glum expression.

He also started shaking his head right before WWE's cameras flashed back to Lynch for some more of that emotion.

15. ‘The Man’ Having A Moment

Man, it's really good that WWE caught this.

Becky had a moment. She just kept staring down at the championship in her hands, then glanced up to scan the massive crowd. Then, she started visibly welling up as if the whole experience was getting on top of her. Being fair, that SummerSlam comeback had to feel damn good for Lynch after over one year away.
