Over the past year, this statement has been used more times than ever before regarding The Man, and once again she was able to make WrestleMania count when she reversed the Kirofuda Clutch into a pinning predicament.

Lynch managed to retain the Raw Women's Championship in her match against Shayna Baszler, more than a year after she was able to defeat Ronda Rousey to lift that Championship. Whilst Lynch won both the SmackDown and RAW Women's Championships as part of the match at WrestleMania 35, she has only managed to keep hold of the red brand's title.

Saturday night's Championship win for Lynch makes her the first woman to win a Championship at WrestleMania and go on to defend the same title at the next WrestleMania event. Trish Stratus was able to do a version of this when she won the Women's Championship at WrestleMania 19, but she didn't defend the Championship until WrestleMania 21.

Lynch is the first woman to do it as part of a consecutive Championship reign.
