On Saturday, February 28th, at the WWE Elimination Chamber event in Chicago, Becky Lynch will defend her WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship against AJ Lee. The intense rivalry between Lynch and Lee has been building steadily since mid-2026, creating high anticipation for this pivotal match. Lynch declared in a recent vlog that she plans to make the encounter unforgettable by ruining AJ Lee’s life during their showdown.
Becky Lynch Highlights Her Success Ahead of the Match
During her latest social media vlog, Becky Lynch confidently contrasted her achievements with those of AJ Lee, emphasizing her own sustained presence on the New York Times bestseller list for her autobiography. She challenged AJ Lee’s record, claiming that Lee’s bestseller did not stay on the list nearly as long as hers did. Lynch’s determined comments included a warning that AJ Lee will regret stepping into the ring against her in Chicago.
Absolute Joke, AJ Lee, her New York Times bestselling book didn’t last very long on the New York Times bestseller list. It was barely on there, actually. She hardly made it on. I made it on many weeks, lots of weeks. People said, ‘wow, that’s a lot of weeks to be on the New York Times bestselling list,’ and I said, well, it’s a very good book. I’m a very good writer, and so she’s going to rue the day to rue the day that she ever decided to come and try to ruin my life. I’m going to ruin her life in Chicago.
