The return of Becky Lynch
Becky Lynch is welcomed to the ring by Renee Young and receives a standing ovation from the crowd. The returning SmackDown Women’s Champion is interrupted immediately by Alexa Bliss, who insists that The Irish Lass Kicker looks in great shape despite her back surgery. However, Lynch denies it and adds that the doctors did not let her compete at No Mercy.
Bliss then calls Lynch a coward and asks her to hand over the title to her. The Champion responds by calling the #1 contender crazy and adds that she will see her in two weeks time at Glasgow. The two cut decent promos.
Alexa tries to catch the Champion off guard with a cheap shot but is blocked by Lynch, who responds with a forearm of her own. Alexa then rolls out of the ring and the Champion follows but Bliss charges into her and sends her crashing into the steel ring post before rolling her back into the ring.
Alexa then nails a DDT on the Champion to leave her motionless in the ring. She then goes out of the ring to fetch a bottle of spray paint and paints a yellow line on the back of Lynch.
