Cris Cyborg Wants Becky Lynch After Her Win at UFC 214

Cris Cyborg won at UFC 214 tonight to become the new UFC Women’s Featherweight Champion. She won by TKO in the third round and pretty much dominated her opponent Tonya Evinger.

After her win, Cyborg took to Twitter to challenge Becky Lynch to a match at SummerSlam.

Earlier today, before her fight, Becky Lynch tweeted at her:

Let's see what you got @criscyborg . I'll be watching. #UFC214

A couple of weeks ago, they had a “playful” back and forth on Twitter, with Cyborg also challenging Becky Lynch to a match at SummerSlam.

WWE.com even posted an article about it.

Will we be seeing @criscyborg at #SummerSlam? @BeckyLynchWWE would certainly have NO problem with that! https://t.co/ljQJYKRDzT

With SummerSlam just three weeks away, I’m not sure how likely this match is, or if WWE is even actually interested. How would they handle a match like that? Cris Cyborg is really fearsome, with barely anyone even willing to agree to a fight with her in UFC. It isn’t believable that Becky Lynch could “beat” her, and seems pointless to have a UFC fighter come in and beat one of your wrestlers. Her stock and name recognition probably went up after tonight though, so we’ll see if WWE thinks she can be a draw for them.
