While a lot of people consider Becky Lynch’s concussion and removal from The Survivor Series Match against Ronda Rousey to be a case of very bad luck, it may actually turn into a huge blessing in disguise for her, according to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
Prior to this week, the plan was for Rousey to wrestle Charlotte Flair at next year’s WrestleMania – very likely in the main event – but with the changes taking place this week, the matches have been flipped and now Lynch is in a position to headline WrestleMania against Rousey instead. Given her popularity, Lynch was likely to be involved in a top women’s match next year for The SmackDown Title, but a potential main event match was never going to happen if not for this injury.
The Observer further reports that the idea is definitely to save The Lynch & Rousey Match as The WrestleMania headliner (instead of at The Royal Rumble) and this was decided upon on Tuesday by both Vince McMahon & Rousey herself. That led to both women beginning their Twitter war even though Ronda is facing Charlotte at Survivor Series.
