Last year, Becky Lynch returned to huge fanfare and beat Bianca Belair in just 26 seconds to become the new SmackDown Women's Champion. Fast forward 2022 and both will wrestle for the Raw Women's belt at SummerSlam. Anyone else out there fearing a role reversal here?

Becky's character has expressed frustration over being unable to both beat Belair at WrestleMania 38 and secure another singles bout against her since. 'Big Time Becks' has thrown temper tantrums and ranted about how unfair everything is, which is WWE code for 'this heel's about to eat some more sh*t'.

Bianca might pin her in 25 seconds on Saturday.

That'd be sweet revenge for the reigning champ, but it'd also make all this build towards their third showdown a total waste of precious TV minutes. Christ knows where Becky fits into things post-SummerSlam anyway, but she defo shouldn't be doing the honours in some sort of soft sequel to her own rapid fire success in 2021.
