WWE SummerSlam 2022: Bianca Belair beats Becky Lynch

0

WWE opened its SummerSlam pay-per-view on Saturday July 30, 2022 at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee with the highly anticipated rematch from last year’s show, one that ended in 26 seconds.

Bianca Belair once again came into the big show as champion, this time holding the Raw women’s title, and defended it against Becky Lynch.

But there was no repeat of last year. Instead of a shock finish early, we got a back-and-forth battle between two wrestlers who know each other well and were ready for the offense the other was bringing to the match.

Early on, it looked that Becky Lynch may have hurt her shoulder, but she went ahead and worked the match like normal.

In the end, Belair did enough by kicking out of a Manhandle Slam and going big with a Spanish Fly and following up with a KOD to score the pinfall to retain her title.

After the match, a defeated Becky Lynch offered her hand to Bianca. When she took it, Lynch leaned into her and Belair embraced her.
