Something very curious happened when WWE announced that the Royal Rumble pay-per-view will include Asuka vs Becky Lynch for the SmackDown Women’s Title. For whatever reason, this match was announced on Main Event seemingly under the radar.
Then just as quickly as it was announced, the match was then recalled with one tweet from former SmackDown GM Paige. It’s interesting that they would place the blame on Paige for this one, but that’s WWE’s New Era for ya.
Becky Lynch was obviously waiting for her match in Phoenix when it was suddenly taken away. So she sent out a little tweet while she considered the recent events.
“What a day, huh? I think I’m going to sit down on an office chair at ringside somewhere and process it all.”
Who knows what The Man is going to be doing at the Royal Rumble at this point? She might just have to win the Women’s Royal Rumble match in order to get to Ronda Rousey which is her ultimate destination. This is a very interesting decision by WWE to announce this match and then change their minds, so who knows what they’ve got planned?
