Becky Lynch has called on her legal team to push for the exclusion of several well-known wrestling media figures from this week’s WWE RAW, the first episode of the show’s anniversary run on Netflix, scheduled to take place at the Barclays Center in New York. Citing mistrust in these reporters, Lynch announced her intent just one day before she is set to challenge for the Women’s Intercontinental Championship, making her Becky Lynch WWE RAW ban demand a hot topic among wrestling fans.
Lynch’s Social Media Outburst Targets Wrestling Media
On the eve of WWE RAW‘s anniversary broadcast in Brooklyn, Becky Lynch turned to social media to unleash strong criticism directed at prominent wrestling media personalities. Lynch explicitly named Ariel Helwani, Dave LaGreca, Sam Roberts, and Peter Rosenberg, stating that these reporters should not be permitted entry into the Barclays Center for the upcoming show. She made it clear that her legal representatives have been tasked with pursuing their ban, underscoring the severity of her complaint against these individuals. In contrast, Lynch reserved praise for Megan Morant, whom she credited for her supportive coverage and labeled as the only trustworthy source for WWE enthusiasts at this volatile time.
“I have asked my lawyers to ENSURE crooked reporters and so called “wrestling” media be barred from Barclays TOMORROW!!! AWFUL ARIEL HELWANI, SCAM ROBERTS, DELULU DAVE LAGRECA and PIPSQUEAK PETER ROSENBERG are NOT WELCOME!!! MARVELOUS Megan Morant (who has pledged her loyalty to me as a BECKY BELIEVER) is the only new source the WWE Universe can trust!” she wrote. — Becky Lynch, WWE Superstar
Championship Showdown Set for WWE RAW in Brooklyn
The heightened attention toward WWE RAW also surrounds Becky Lynch’s match against Maxxine Dupri for the Women’s Intercontinental Championship. Dupri has held onto the title since defeating Lynch at Madison Square Garden in November, thanks to a timely distraction from AJ Lee during their previous encounter. Now, the rivalry will reach a new peak as they face off once again at the Barclays Center. The anticipation is further amplified by Lynch’s recent social media jabs at Dupri, increasing tension before the live broadcast.

In the run-up to their much-anticipated match, Becky Lynch sought to get under Maxxine Dupri’s skin with a social media post that referenced Dupri’s recent marriage to NXT competitor Anthony Luke. Lynch commented on Dupri’s wedding attire and forecasted a quick end to her championship reign, suggesting that Dupri’s tenure as titleholder would soon be over.
“MOODY MAXXINE is getting married this week (I hear the dress is AWFUL). Hopefully, she enjoys her FINAL WEEK as ‘champion’. Come Jan 5th in Brooklyn, we ALL will celebrate her DIVORCE with the INTERCONTINENTAL championship!”
