5 Takeaways from WWE Backstage (December 31st, 2019)

#2 Match of the Year - Becky Lynch vs. Sasha Banks at Hell in a Cell

Lynch defended her title in a brutal match against a returning Banks

The brutal Hell in a Cell match between Lynch and Banks took the second spot on the WWE Backstage list. It signaled Banks' return to the company after a several-month hiatus following WrestleMania 35.

A lot of people thought that if Lynch was going to lose the RAW Women's title, it would be at HIAC to Banks. Well, it didn't happen, with The Man continuing her dominance as the hottest star in all of WWE. After such a successful year, Booker said that in regards to 2020 for Lynch, "Becky's doing her thing" because "she wrote her own ticket." Regarding Banks, he felt that she's still "trying to find her footing" and that "whatever she does she'll have to do it behind Lynch because Becky's on fire."

Christian added his take on the Boss, stating that he "thinks she's better when she has that chip on her shoulder." Similar to many other stars, she works better like that and should "go out there with the mentality that no one is going to have a better match than me." Booker added that "when Becky became the Man, no one had done that in the business before." Young added that "it (Becky's success) shook her (Sasha)."
