In her book titled ‘BECKY LYNCH: THE MAN. Not Your Average Average Girl’, Becky Lynch shared details about her comeback at WWE SummerSlam 2021.
After defeating Bianca Belair in a 26-second squash match to win the SmackDown Women’s Championship, Lynch revealed that she went backstage and noticed Belair crying, believing her momentum had been abruptly halted.
Despite this, Lynch reassured Belair that she would make things right for her. She expressed her commitment to restoring Belair’s moment at WrestleMania 38, which she did.
Additionally, Lynch confirmed that Vince McMahon dictated the manner in which the squash match unfolded at SummerSlam 2021, indicating that she had no influence over the decision.
During an interview with talkSPORT in 2022, Bianca revealed what WWE Legend John Cena (who wrestled in the main event of SummerSlam 2021) said to her after her loss:
“I really got to talk with John Cena a lot after the 26 seconds moment at SummerSlam. He really just gave me a lot of great advice and keep the right perspective of everything.
Basically the gist of what he said was ‘moments like this you can really use to propel you. You see how much the fans really get behind you.’
For me, out of that, I was able to look at the longer picture, the bigger picture and hopefully one day it’ll come back full circle, who knows.
But for me, I took it as you can use this as an opportunity to show who you are without that Title. I’m still the EST of WWE and I’m still going to go out there and show out every single time I step in the ring and you really get to see who’s behind you.
Ironically, I think that moment really propelled me and made me a bigger star.”
