#5 Becky Lynch suffers an embarrassing 12-second loss

@BiancaBelairWWE squashed @BeckyLynchWWE in 12 seconds after RAW went off air! https://t.co/52rCddBGwg

Becky Lynch didn't have a great night this past week on WWE RAW, especially after the show went off the air. The RAW Women's Champion was in the final segment of the show, where she confronted the 2022 Women's Royal Rumble winner, Ronda Rousey. WWE Hall of Famer Lita then confronted Lynch and challenged her to a title bout, which was made official for Elimination Chamber.

After RAW, Lynch was scheduled to face Bianca Belair in a dark match. Big Time Becks tried to escape, but she was forced into the ring by Lita. The EST of WWE then caught her opponent by surprise and executed a KOD to get the win in just 12 seconds. This was sweet revenge for Belair, who was squashed by Becky Lynch last year at SummerSlam in a similar manner.
