Becky Lynch Wins Elimination Chamber Match
Joe Camporeale-USA TODAY Sports

Becky Lynch is headed to WrestleMania.

After winning the women’s Elimination Chamber match, Lynch will wrestle WWE women’s champion Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 40.

This match opened the Elimination Chamber show in Perth, Australia. Bianca Belair, Liv Morgan, Tiffany, Raquel Rodriguez, and Naomi all had highlight-reel moments. One moment that particularly stood out was Stratton’s swanton off the pod.

The end sequence came when Morgan pinned Belair, and Lynch quickly capitalized and pinned Morgan. Lynch entered the match first, so she went start-to-finish in this 32-minute match.

Lynch winning is the right call. She will place a significant spotlight on Ripley at WrestleMania 40, a great strategy for WWE.
