What's the story?

WWE have today released behind-the-scenes footage from a rollercoaster day on Tuesday, called The Day Of: The Man, following Becky Lynch after her medical check-up.

In the heartbreaking footage, the SmackDown Women's Champion is told that she is medically disqualified from competing at Survivor Series against Ronda Rousey and her reactions are captured on video.

In case you didn't know...

On this week's Monday Night Raw, SmackDown Women's Champion Becky Lynch both incited the WWE Universe and caused chaos when she ambushed Ronda Rousey backstage before orchestrating an all-out assault on the RAW women's roster ahead of Survivor Series.

A punch from Nia Jax, though, left the blue brand's Women's Champion with a major concussion and a broken face - and subsequently ruled Lynch out of her Survivor Series match against the RAW Women's Champion Ronda Rousey.

The heart of the matter

WWE have today released behind-the-scenes footage from a rollercoaster day on Tuesday, following Becky Lynch after her medical check-up.

In the heartbreaking footage, Becky's mother calls her at the start of the clip where she said she feels fine but utters that her nose is broken before joking that it's still straight.

After the SmackDown Women's Champion gets off of the phone with her mum, she gets told about the severity of her injuries.

The clip shares some incredible new details, stating that Lynch spent the night in the hospital before SmackDown, and showing her embracing with Paul Heyman and Sheamus, before eating in catering and sitting on the bleachers, on her phone.

Lynch finds out via text and then speaks to the camera teary-eyed, saying she feels fine but they won't let her compete. You can watch the entire clip below.
