Lacey Evans is a piece of work. Scented, formal invitations to watch her beat up a jobber? That’s certainly something.

After making short work of her opponent, Lacey ran her mouth on the four Money in the Bank ladder match participants, and then took shots at Becky Lynch. The Double Champ stormed to the ring, pummeled Evans and chased her off in short order, with fans chanting “Becky!”

It was a simple, but effective segment, with Evans winning a match, running down the roster and putting them on notice, and Lynch mixing it up to show she’s up for a brawl whenever possible.

Evans still has work to do to prove herself, both in the ring and on the mic, but she at least didn’t look like a lost lamb out there. That’s something.
