Becky Lynch vs. Lita title match set for WWE Elimination Chamber

Lita will challenge Becky Lynch for the Raw Women’s Championship at WWE Elimination Chamber. 

The match was made official in the closing segment of tonight’s Raw. 

Ronda Rousey returned to the show, teasing that she would reveal her WrestleMania opponent after winning Saturday’s women’s Royal Rumble match. Instead, Rousey hit Lynch with a judo thrown and told her that she will reveal whether she will challenge Lynch or SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair on Friday’s SmackDown episode.

After Rousey left Lynch laying, Lita’s music hit, and the WWE Hall of Famer entered, wearing Becky Lynch merchandise.

She said that while Rousey may not be ready to challenge Lynch, Lita was always up for a challenge, then challenged Lynch. After initially begging off, Lynch agreed to  the match for Saudi Arabia.

An elimination chamber match for the WWE Championship was also announced on tonight’s show. Here is the lineup so far:
