Becky Lynch has been trying to get her hands on Trish Stratus for weeks now, and she will finally get the chance at SummerSlam 2023, which will take place early next month.
Becky Lynch was supposed to have a repeat with Zoey Stark on this week’s Raw. If Lynch lost again, she would have to get the words “Thank You Trish” tattooed on her chest.
On the other hand, if Lynch had won the much-anticipated match against Stratus, she would have had a chance to go to SummerSlam. The good news for the WWE Universe is that the second option won out.
Becky Lynch beat Zoey Stark on Raw, even though Trish Stratus tried to get in the way. Lynch Manhandled Stark for the pin-fall win after knocking the WWE Hall of Famer off the apron.

So, a repeat between THE MAN and the guy who calls himself the “Greatest of All Time” will happen at SummerSlam. At the Night of Champions event in Saudi Arabia, Stark got in the way of Stratus and Lynch’s match, which helped Stratus win.
At SummerSlam, Drew McIntyre is eager to put a stop to GUNTHER’s protracted reign as Intercontinental Champion. Drew’s challenge for the title match, which was officially revealed by the WWE, was made on Raw.
Drew came back to WWE television earlier this month at WWE Money in the Bank. He fought GUNTHER after Riddle successfully defended his title against him. Drew hadn’t been on TV since WrestleMania 39, when he lost a Triple Threat for the IC Title.
Since June of last year, GUNTHER has been the Intercontinental Champion. He is getting close to breaking the record for longest run with the belt, which is held by WWE Hall of Famer Honky Tonk Man.
Also on Raw, Ricochet went to the ring to tell Logan Paul that he had challenged him to a match at SummerSlam 2023. After accepting the challenge and striking Ricochet from behind, Logan used his phone to go live on social media to accept the challenge.
