Becky Lynch won the Elimination Chamber 2024 event, earning the opportunity to challenge Rhea Ripley for the WWE Women's Championship at WrestleMania 40.

Ripley has been at the top of her game recently and is on her way to becoming one of the most popular WWE stars of all time. She recently went viral on social media after footage of her match with Nia Jax surfaced, in which Rhea Ripley delivered a stink face move on her opponent.

While discussing her WrestleMania opponent, Becky Lynch reacted to the viral video of Rhea Ripley giving a stink face to Nia Jax, saying, "So when you go out there and you say, 'Well, I can just post a photo and people will go crazy, or I can just post a video of my a** and people will go crazy.'

"Well, then that just feels like we're kind of going back, and I worry about that because if that's what people see as your champion, 'Oh, that's the Women's Champion! What do I think of when I think of the Women's Champion? Oh, I think of her a**!' Then we're just going back and we're making an a** of our business!"
