WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch has been embroiled in a feud with AJ Lee since the latter’s return to WWE last September. Since then, Lee has constantly had the upper hand over the former Women’s World Champion.
After forcing Becky to submit during the Mixed Tag Team match at Wrestlepalooza and the Women’s WarGames match at Survivor Series last year, AJ once again got one up on Lynch this past February, when she forced the Irish legend to tap out and hand over the Women’s Intercontinental Championship to her.
Becky will look to seek revenge this weekend when she challenges AJ Lee for the title at WrestleMania 42. Ahead of that showdown, The Man appeared on Chris Van Vliet’s INSIGHT podcast, where she talked about her feud with Lee, besides weighing in on who will have the advantage at WrestleMania. Below are the highlights:
On Whether Her Hatred of AJ Lee Is Similar to Seth Rollins’ Hatred for CM Punk
“Not on that level; I just want her gone. To me, she’s like a fly I gotta get rid of. Get out of here. Nobody wants you. Nobody wanted you back. Be gone. You weren’t here for me when I was wrestling, when I was coming up. So I don’t want you now. Saying she’s proud of me. She wasn’t proud of me when she left. She was scared of me. That’s what happened. She was scared of me. She saw it in my eyes. She saw the fire. She went bye-bye, so long. But then, you know, she didn’t go ahead and say crap about me for years. It’s a little bit different.”
On Who’ll have the Home Field Advantage in Las Vegas
“Oh, that’s me. Because WrestleMania is my home. This is my 10th WrestleMania, which makes it an anniversary, which makes it special. Started WrestleMania 32; here we are, 42. I missed one because of the child.”
Becky and AJ will go one-on-one at WrestleMania 42 Saturday. You can check out the full lineup for each night RIGHT HERE.
