Becky Lynch, Rhea Ripley confrontation angle takes place on The MMA Hour

Becky Lynch and Rhea Ripley built up their upcoming WrestleMania match on Monday’s episode of The MMA Hour. 

While being interviewed by Ariel Helwani, Ripley said she wants to face The Man at WrestleMania, not the version of Lynch we see today who is a mother, wife, and author. 

“I don’t want mom Becky Lynch. I don’t want the mother, I don’t want the wife, I don’t want the book writer Becky. I want The Man,” Ripley said on the show. 

Shortly after Ripley made the comments, Lynch appeared on set and confronted her, leading to a pull-apart between the two. 

“I did not know that was going to happen, I apologize. You may not want to come back here again but thank you for not breaking our set,” Helwani says to Ripley after the altercation. 

Ripley also revealed during the interview that she has been dealing with a wrist injury of late. Lynch screamed that she was “coming for” Ripley’s arm during their altercation.

“Thanks for giving me a target, Mami. Iā€™m coming for your arm and the #WomensWorldTitle at WrestleMANia,” Lynch wrote on X.
