You could see the “if” coming a mile away, and it was glorious.

Triple H and Stephanie McMahon were being just a little too nice to Becky Lynch in apologizing for their actions last week and announcing she was medically cleared and her WrestleMania match against Ronda Rousey was back on.

Then Stephanie dropped the “if” part, as they said the match was on if Lynch apologized for striking both members of the McMahon family.

But Becky’s reaction was gold, declaring that they and Vince McMahon have been screwing people over for decades (truth), and that she’d fight anyone to get to Mania (but not apologize, as Triple H could shove that apology somewhere else).

It was another great little bit of character building for Becky, as she remains defiant against the authority figures in her quest for Mania glory.
