Becky Lynch interrupted the contract signing as she showed up to confront Adam Pearce. However, Ruca and Lynch got into a verbal back-and-forth instead.<\/p>\n<p><template id=\"template__newsletter-inline-banner-form-combo-widget\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<p><img id=\"subscribe-img\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\nThanks for the submission!\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<p>The Irish star attempted to punch the 26-year-old, who got out of the way, and Lynch inadvertently hit the RAW General Manager.

While speaking about the former NXT star, Lynch mocked her by referring to her as &#8220;<strong>Sol Puka<\/strong>.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Did you say her name is Sol Puka? Who&#8217;s that Sol Puka? Well, she makes me want to puke, okay? Attacking me out of nowhere but doing nothing. Absolutely nothing,&#8221; Lynch said. <\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>You can check out her comments in the video below: <\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Becky Lynch claims she was upset about punching WWE RAW General Manager Adam Pearce<\/h2>\n<p>Later in the same video she posted on <em>Instagram<\/em>, Lynch stated that she went into the ring to have a respectful conversation with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/player\/adam-pearce\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Adam Pearce<\/a>, and she would never harm him in any way. The RAW star claimed that she respected the GM and had never said anything bad about him.<\/p>\n<p>Becky Lynch further claimed that she was reaching out to have a look at Sol Ruca&#8217;s contract to ensure that it didn&#8217;t include a shot at her WWE Women&#8217;s Intercontinental Championship. But she accidentally punched Pearce instead. The 39-year-old added that it put her in a predicament with Scrap Iron, and she was very upset about it.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;I went out there to have a very civil conversation with my good friend, Adam Pearce, who, by the way, I would never harm in any way ever. No, I&#8217;ve never said a bad word against Adam Pearce. I respect him immeasurably. I was actually just reaching. I was trying to reach. I&#8217;m very strong. Sometimes, I don&#8217;t know my own strength, but I was trying to reach to see that contract because sometimes there can be hidden things in the contract. You want to make sure that she&#8217;s not getting a title shot or something. You know, like somebody snuck that in a little favor from NXT, and now I&#8217;m in hot water with Pearce, which I would never. We&#8217;ve always just had such great relationship. So, I&#8217;m very upset about it,&#8221; Lynch said.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It will be interesting to see if punching Adam Pearce leads to Becky Lynch facing some serious repercussions going forward.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>In case you use any quotes from this article, please credit Becky Lynch with an H\/T to Sportskeeda Wrestling for the transcription.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"article-post-rating-widget\">\n<p><template id=\"post-rating-feedback-modal-template\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-feedback-box\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-content\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-data\">\n<p>Why did you not like this content?<\/p>\n<p><textarea id=\"dislike-feedback-text\" rows=\"4\" placeholder=\"Please type your feedback...\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<button class=\"close\">Cancel<\/button><br \/>\n<button class=\"submit\">Submit<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-widget-parent hidden\">\n<div class=\"rating-parent-container\">\n<div class=\"rating-content-holder\">\n<p>Was this article helpful?<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-action-container\">\n<div class=\"like-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-like-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"like\" title=\"like article\"><br \/>\n<img class=\"post-like-image post-rating-image\" data-lazy=\"\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"like selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dislike-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-dislike-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"dislike\" title=\"dislike article\"><br \/>\n<img class=\"post-dis-like-image post-rating-image\" data-lazy=\"\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"avatar selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nThank You for feedback\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"tag-cloud\">\n<div class=\"tags-text\">\n<div class=\"scrollable-content-holder  article-padding\">\n<p class=\"article-p  \">Quick Links<\/p>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerLeft\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Left \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img style=\"background: none;\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-left.svg\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button><\/p>\n<nav id=\"pnProductNav\" class=\"pn-ProductNav\">\n<\/nav>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerRight\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Right \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img style=\"background: none;\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-right.svg\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<p>More from Sportskeeda<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<span class=\"publisher-name\">Edited by Ankit Verma<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/wwe\/news-becky-lynch-hands-wwe-raw-s-newest-star-hilarious-new-name\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WWE Women&#8217;s Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch handed a young star a new name in a recent backstage promo.
