After saying last week that she wanted more competition for her championships, Becky Lynch got that on tonight’s episode of SmackDown Live, as she and Bayley participated in a match just a week after Bayley interrupted Lynch and Charlotte Flair, demanding that she be given her own chance at the WWE SmackDown Women’s Championship.

But the REAL winner tonight = @MsCharlotteWWE. #SDLive pic.twitter.com/peAXqJsarw

Despite losing to Flair last week, Bayely was determined to come away with a victory against Lynch in an effort to prove herself worthy. To her credit, Bayley looked more than worthy for a large portion of the match, as she easily held her against the dual Women’s champion. Despite the great effort from Bayley, it wasn’t enough to defeat The Man, as Lynch was able to trap Bayley’s arm and get her into a devastating submission, forcing Bayley to tap out.
As she got up to celebrate, however, Lynch was quickly met by Charlotte Flair, who delivered a vicious kick to Lynch’s head and threw Bayley out of the ring in a show of force ahead of her Miney in the Bank match.
