WWE's Becky Lynch Says Charlotte and Ronda Match Main Eventing WrestleMania Would Be 'Token Gesture'

Becky Lynch will defend her Raw Women's Championship at WrestleMania 38 against Bianca Belair, a story that's been building ever since last year's SummerSlam. That event delivers a major shock as Lynch returned and defeated Belair in a heel-like move in around 30 seconds. Ever since they've been going back and forth and keeping the feud alive and now it all leads to this match. In a new interview with BT Sport's Ariel Helwani, Lynch was asked how she feels about Charlotte Flair and Ronda Rousey's match going on after their match, and regardless of where on the card they end up, Lynch doesn't feel like it will stack up to her match. And if it's the main event, she feels it will only be a token gesture.

"Makes no difference," Lynch said. "They can go on later. Again I don't think they're the main event. But look, my match is gonna steal the show. My match is gonna be better. My story has been better. Everything that I've done has been better. That's not even a question. Nobody, not one single person, unless you're an idiot, can say that their stuff has been better than mine. And so yeah that doesn't bother me. Wherever they go, even if they do go last, I don't care, my stuff is better. My stuff is the real main event."

She was then asked if she would like to main event the show, and Lynch definitely feels like her match against Belair is worthy of that spotlight, especially when you consider that both are the only two women to ever win a main event when main eventing WrestleMania.

"If we're the main event, sure," Lynch said. "I think in terms of story-wise, the only two women to have ever won a main event of WrestleMania main-eventing WrestleMania, going on last, I think that would be the perfect story. Two losers main-eventing WrestleMania, two main-event losers, main-eventing WrestleMania, sure. But then I think one, you feel like it's a token gesture that they're going on last because of Ronda's name. I don't think anybody thinks that their story is better and that they deserve it."
