#4 Becky Lynch vs Natalya

A while ago, Natalya defeated Alexa Bliss, Carmella, and Naomi in a Fatal Four-Way #1 Contender's Elimination match for a shot at Becky Lynch's Raw Women's title at SummerSlam. Ever since then, Lynch and Natalya have been feuding with each other on TV as well as on social media. Recently, Lynch posted a video chronicling her past with Natalya, and the latter responded to it by calling her a "spoon-fed NXT darling". The two women will face off at SummerSlam 2019, emanating from Toronto, Canada, in front of Natalya's countrymen.

Back in 2016, when Lynch was nowhere near as white-hot as she is currently, these two women had a short-lived feud. Lynch and Natalya faced off against Dana Brooke and Charlotte Flair at Money In The Bank 2016, in a losing effort. A frustrated Natalya attacked Becky after the match and the two met at Battleground. Natalya managed to score a victory over Lynch at the time, but will history repeat itself at SummerSlam?

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
