#4 Becky Lynch vs Mickie James
James is transitioning back into the WWE surprisingly smoothly. Becky Lynch is a perfect return feud for her, and again, while it’s packaged in the same “Old Guard vs Women’s Revolution” thing, it’s still a totally new match up, so I’m into it.
James has still got it and carries herself perfectly as a heel vet. Her motivations make sense, she feels like she’s not getting credit for being a badass women’s pioneer and teamed up with the only person she feels gave her the respect she deserves.
Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.
It’s not like she’s been there for over a decade solid and all of the sudden noticed someone had more t-shirts for sale at the merch table.
My only problem is that now we have the lone Horsewoman on Smackdown thrown out of the Championship scene and into a fight with someone who she didn’t initially have any beef with. Becky seems like the type who would be amped to learn from a returning vet like Mickie.
But Mickie took the first swing and probably the last. James hasn’t won a WWE sanctioned match since Royal Rumble... seven years ago. She’s definitely due for a singles win and is probably owed one for getting sunk by Asuka first day back.
