“Disappointed”: Becky Lynch’s World Title Booking Lambasted & Preferred Winner Named Amid ‘Becky Hogan’ Chants Online

In the latest edition of the WWE’s red brand, the main event of the evening featured a Battle Royal to determine the new WWE Women’s World Champion. This match and stipulation took place because ‘Mami’ Rhea Ripley, vacated the championship last week due to an injury. It was a serious battle with several worthy candidates, one of which was Liv Morgan. The WWE Universe has been begging the Stamford-based promotion to give Morgan a push with a world title. However, in the end, it was Becky Lynch who came out on top and was proclaimed the new WWE Women’s World Champion. This led to chants of ‘Becky Hogan’ online as they believed she stole Morgan’s opportunity to shine, something Hogan was infamous for doing with his peers

And it seems like another renowned face from the pro wrestling community feels the same.

Becky Lynch’s ‘disappointing’ victory

Dave LaGreca and Bully Ray discussed all things WWE in the latest edition of the Busted Open podcast. And one of the biggest topics of this edition was Becky Lynch winning the title. And it seems to have disappointed LaGreca as he stated his opinion of this booking. He said, “I felt like there was a lot of momentum with Liv Morgan. So I was a little surprised that she didn’t win that Battle Royale.” He further emphasized his disappointment as he added, “Was I disappointed? I was a little disappointed, yes.”

Liv Morgan has been the crowd favorite for quite a while. The former SmackDown Women’s champion received one of the loudest crowd pops when she returned to the WWE at Royal Rumble 2024. It seems like the fans will have to create another scenario similar to #wewantcody or the ‘Yes Movement’ to get her the push she deserves. Nevertheless, one woman’s misery is another woman’s delight. The new Women’s world champion outlined the sacrifices that she endured as she clinched another title to her growing collection.

‘The Man’ shares her thoughts on title win

After winning the Battle Royale, ‘The Man’ celebrated the win with the audience. After which, Becky Lynch was interviewed backstage for Raw Exclusive. There she discussed her thoughts on the importance of this win and the personal sacrifices she made to get to this point.

“Look at it, it’s beautiful, it’s beautiful. Look, for the last few months, Rhea even said it, I’ve been burning the candle all out. I’ve been away from my daughter for weeks on end. Got myself a New York Times bestseller for a damn near month. But man, it’s worth it. It’s worth it because the words of my book are written on my gear. It reminds me why I do this, where I started, where I’ve gotten to. We’re just going up, baby.”

‘The Man’ adds a new World Championship to her credit, which makes her legend even greater. We will have to be very attentive in the next few weeks to find out who will be the first contender to jeopardize Lynch’s new reign as the new WWE Women’s World Champion. But we can already take a guess that the WWE Universe surely wants it to be Liv Morgan. What did you make of Bully Ray’s thoughts on Liv Morgan falling short
