Sol Ruca Earns Women's IC Title Shot at Clash in Italy After Becky Lynch DQ
6 articles · Updated · Yahoo Sports · May 24
Sol Ruca will face Becky Lynch for the Women's Intercontinental Championship at next weekend's Clash in Turin after WWE officials turned their Saturday fallout into a title match.
Saturday Night's Main Event ended in disqualification when Lynch, about to take Ruca's Sol Snatcher, pulled referee Jessika Carr into the move to stop the non-title bout.
Nick Aldis told Lynch backstage that Raw GM Adam Pearce had approved the rematch and added a title stipulation, denying Lynch a way out of a legitimate contest.
Ruca, recently called up from NXT after WrestleMania 42, becomes Lynch's second challenger since Lynch regained the belt from AJ Lee at WrestleMania.
Will Sol Ruca's title match in Italy signal a strategic shift for WWE's newest generation of superstars?
Is Becky Lynch's mockery a clever mind game, or does she genuinely fear Sol Ruca's signature finisher?
