After losing her SmackDown Women’s Championship and fading to the background Sunday night, Becky Lynch needed to have a strong Monday night on Raw – and she did.

The Man ran down the Iiconics and Lacey Evans after they interrupted her on A Moment of Bliss, threatening to beat the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions and become Becky 3 Belts, and noting that now that she wasn’t on SmackDown, she could slap Lacey around on Raw fulltime.

After Lynch challenged all three women, Nikki Cross volunteered to tag with her, and Alexa Bliss was recruited to stand on the outside to make it a six-woman tag match. Becky would go on to grab the victory, as Evans walked out on the match (which really made it a tag bout since Bliss didn’t compete).

We’ll see what happens for Lynch next, but at least she came out and got a victory after jawing with a few wrestlers, which is what she does best.
