Becky Lynch makes her way to the ring.
Becky says she deserves to be standing here as the champion, but since it was stolen from her, Charlotte got what she deserved. Becky says that SummerSlam was supposed to be about one woman, her. It was about her time. She says she fought her way for months to earn a singles match against Carmella. Becky says she got over the fact that Charlotte got added to the match. Becky says it was her opportunity to silence the people who said she was just Charlotte's friend. She wanted the chance to hold the title over her head.
You act like you are with her, but were you the whole time? There was no hashtag 'Give Becky a Chance'. When Charlotte weaseled her way into the match, she got some tweets, but there was no boycott. When Charlotte stole the title from her, you cheered the new champion. Whenever anyone asks who the greatest of all time is, Becky Lynch is not the first name out of your mouths. Becky says she has been made an afterthought. After a few nights, that is not going to change.
You are a generation of all talk and no actions. Becky says she had enough of the opinions and tried to take things into her own hands. The referee making the three count waked her up from a trance. She knew that her so called best friend had been holding her back. At that moment, she knew that Charlotte stole her spotlight for the last time. She knew she would raise Charlotte's hand and rip her head off. Becky says it was her time to be champion, but not because any of you think she deserves it. It is because she says she deserves it. There is no one on this roster or anyone in this arena or watching at home can tell her any different.
