Following night one of the WWE Draft on the sophomore edition of WWE Friday Night SmackDown On FOX one thing is absolutely clear in the WWE Universe — Becky Lynch is “The Man” right now.
The reigning, undisputed WWE RAW Women’s Champion was selected as the overall number one selection in the WWE Draft during night one of the two-night special, which kicked off on the 10/11 episode of WWE Friday Night SmackDown On FOX, live from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
After the draft, the WWE 2K20 cover star spoke in an “Xfinity Rapid Reaction” segment on WWE’s official social media outlets to give her immediate reaction to being the number one overall draft pick in WWE.
“I’ve had a plethora of ‘firsts,’” Lynch said during a backstage interview at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Friday night. “I think being the overall number one draft pick just fits nice and comfortably into that.”
RAW’s reigning queen of the competitive women’s division continued, “I feel honor because two years ago I was struggling to get on TV, now, all the TV shows are fightin’ to having me!”
As noted, WWE has announced that Lynch will go one-on-one against Sasha Banks on Monday night’s episode of WWE RAW, which features the second and final night of the WWE Draft.
The Lynch-Banks match, much like the Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns match from this week’s edition of WWE Friday Night SmackDown On FOX, will determine which brand gets the first selection in night two of the WWE Draft.
“The Man” will represent the red brand, while “The Boss” will be fighting for the blue brand.
