Becky Lynch, the WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion and a future Hall of Famer, is set to introduce a brand-new WWE theme song, marking a significant change after over a decade of using the iconic tune Celtic Invasion. This update will coincide with WWE’s SummerSlam event, highlighting an evolution in her persona and entrance music style.
A New Chapter Begins with Becky Lynch’s Theme Song
For years, Becky Lynch’s theme song, Celtic Invasion, produced by CFO, has been a fan favorite known for energizing the crowd and creating strong audience interaction during her entrances. However, in her current role as one of the top heels in the women’s division, Lynch appears ready to reinvent her WWE entrance with a fresh sound. According to Fightful Select, her new theme song, finished several months ago by the band The Wonder Years, is planned to debut on WWE television imminently.
Notably, this will be Lynch’s first entrance theme featuring full lyrics, adding a new dimension to her overall presentation. The original version of the track includes an intro titled The Man Has Come Around, reflecting Lynch’s enduring motto and character identity.
SummerSlam Marks a Significant Event in Becky Lynch’s Career
On Saturday, August 2nd, Becky Lynch will defend her Women’s Intercontinental Title against Lyra Valkyria at WWE SummerSlam, in a match without countouts or disqualifications. This will be Lynch’s first SummerSlam match in three years, making it a momentous occasion for the superstar.
Reflecting on her history with SummerSlam, Lynch highlighted how pivotal the event has been in her career development and personal milestones. She said,
“It was my first PLE. It was where the infamous slap happened that really catapulted my career. It was also where I came back after I had my daughter and beat Bianca Belair in 26 seconds. And then a year later we were tearing the house down and then fighting side-by-side. I’m kind of blown away that it’s been three years since I wrestled at a SummerSlam.” —Becky Lynch, WWE Superstar
Fans can watch SummerSlam live on Peacock in the United States at 6 p.m. ET/3 p.m. PT on August 2 and 3, and on Netflix internationally, showcasing high-stakes championship battles and marquee matches.
