Lynch versus Doudrop set for the Royal Rumble.
In the main event of the January 10th Monday Night Raw, Bianca Belair, Liv Morgan and Doudrop competed in a Triple-Threat match to determine who would challenge Becky Lynch for the Raw Women’s Title at the Royal Rumble.
The conclusion of the match saw Belair hit Morgan with the ‘K.O.D.’ finisher and as she made the cover, Lynch got in the ring and broke it up. She then brawled with Belair on the outside and in the ring, Doudrop capitalized on Belair’s work and hit a ‘Banzai Drop’ onto Morgan to secure the win.
It is now official that at the Royal Rumble, Lynch will defend her title against Doudrop. Lynch approached her future opponent and extended her hand out but immediately went in for the ‘Manhandle Slam’. She was not able to get Doudrop up and was powered out of the ring.
