Becky Lynch has reclaimed gold on Monday nights. On the latest episode of Monday Night Raw, Becky Lynch defeated Maxxine Dupri to become the WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion for the second time, bringing Dupri’s reign to an abrupt end just shy of the two month mark.

The title bout opened with both women looking to outthink one another rather than overpower. Lynch wasted little time hunting for the Dis Arm Her, while Dupri stayed calm and grounded the challenger with an ankle lock, forcing an early scramble to the ropes. The fight briefly moved to the floor, where Dupri used her speed to her advantage, driving Lynch into the barricade and apron to regain momentum.

Once back inside the ring, Lynch shifted the tone with a crisp Bexploder suplex followed by a leg drop from the ropes. Dupri refused to fade, firing back with a fisherman’s suplex and a sit out backbreaker that nearly kept the challenger down. As the pace quickened, Lynch landed a superplex that flowed straight into a rolling DDT, setting the stage for the finish.

The closing moments came with controversy. Dupri countered a powerbomb attempt into another ankle lock, but Lynch cleverly rolled through the hold and hooked the pin. With the referee focused on the shoulders, Lynch subtly grabbed the ropes for leverage, securing the three count and the championship in dramatic fashion.
