Becky Lynch totally crushed it in the much-hyped showdown against Stratton, and she won the championship by pinning him down. This was a huge deal for Lynch, as it marked a major milestone in her career that started way back in NXT ten years ago.
And now, she’s part of the elite group of Grand Slam Champions in WWE, which is pretty freaking awesome. Plus, all four members of the ‘Four Horsewomen’ crew have now achieved this status, proving just how amazing they are in the wrestling world.

WWE hyped up this match for Tuesday’s show. Lynch and Stratton appeared on RAW before the match. Lynch was determined to complete a journey from years ago in the NXT arena.
They had a fierce battle in which both came close to winning. However, Stratton tried the ‘Most Beautiful Moonsault Ever,’ but Lynch stopped it with a ‘second-rope Russian leg sweep’.
Bayley comment about Becky Lynch winning the NXT Championship
Last night, Becky Lynch achieved her ten-year-long dream of becoming the NXT Women’s Champion on WWE NXT. Her friend and former factionmate Bayley reacted to The Man’s win. It was clear that Becky would come back to NXT and challenge Tiffany Stratton for her title.
Tiffany had been taking shots at Lynch for weeks. As a result, Mrs. Big Time resolved their issues by having a one-on-one match for Tiffy’s title.
This was a huge match for Tiffany Stratton as she gave it her all and fought hard. It looked like Buff Barbie did her research and knew how to take on The Man. She even dodged the ‘Dis Arm Her’, but unfortunately couldn’t avoid the Man Handle Slam. They battled it out for over ten minutes, but in the end, The Man came out on top with that slam.
After the match, Bayley went on X to react to Lynch’s win. She jokingly teased her friend for taking so long to win the NXT Women’s Championship. “Took @BeckyLynchWWE long enough #WWENXT,” Bayley tweeted. (Via-X)
