#4. Becky Lynch and Bianca Belair signed on the dotted line on WWE SmackDown

Bianca Belair came out to Madison Square Garden to sign a contract for her WWE Extreme Rules match against SmackDown Women’s Champion Becky Lynch.

Lynch came out to a huge pop wearing a rather flashy coat for the segment. The Man targeted Belair and asked what would happen if she did not sign the contract. She built more heat towards her character before reminding fans that they wanted her to return when she was at home.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

The Man said she left her baby girl to come back for them before signing on the dotted line. She threw the contract back at The EST and left the ring with her SmackDown Women’s Championship.

The segment was short and to the point. There were no brawls or anything of that sort to make things predictable. Lynch played her heel character well and was great on the mic again.

She hasn’t lost her touch even though she was away from the ring for over a year. Meanwhile, Belair seemed unfazed. The Man’s heel turn could open the doors to some interesting rivalries on the Blue brand.
