First Match Set for WWE SummerSlam

Natalya defeated Lana, Becky Lynch, Tamina and Charlotte in a Fatal 5-Way match at tonight’s WWE Battleground event to earn a shot at the SmackDown Women’s Championship at the upcoming WWE Summerslam event.

No other matches have been officially set for the event.

WWE SummerSlam will take place on August 20, 2017, at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. As always, we will have live coverage of the event.

WWE Teases Huge UFC vs. WWE Feud

During Friday’s Mae Young Classic tapings at Full Sail University, WWE did an angle that saw a tease between WWE and UFC’s Four Horsewomen.

After one of Shayna Baszler’s matches in the tournament, Charlotte, Becky Lynch and Bayley were shown at ringside on the opposite side of Ronda Rousey and her crew. Both sides had words with each other and it was made obvious WWE has something planned between the two sides, as the angle was recorded.

Here is footage from the angle:

Becky Lynch Has Words for UFC Fighter Cris Cyborg

As previously noted, Triple H sent out an invitation to Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor to add RAW to their promotional tour dates ahead of their boxing match on August 26.

Apparently fellow UFC Fighter Cris Cyborg wants in on that action as well and sent a tweet to Triple H telling him not to let Becky Lynch near her. She also commented on how Ireland can’t handle another star losing this summer.

Becky Lynch wasn’t going to let Cyborg’s remarks slide and mentioned how Cyborg needs to be sure Dana White would let her.

Becky Lynch Says There Will Be Women’s Royal Rumble

While speaking to Amarillo, Becky Lynch made the following remarks about a possible women’s Royal Rumble match:

“I think there’ll definitely be a time where the women get their own Royal Rumble. When you look at the fact that in July there is the Mae Young Classic taking place between 32 women. Then, you have the women in NXT and the women on both brands. I think it’s a year or two away from having our own Royal Rumble, then maybe our tag titles, the sky is the limit.”
