at WrestleMania 41 after a year of absence. She was Lyra Valkyria's replacement partner to face Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships. The duo won the titles at the show, but lost them back on the RAW after WrestleMania. Right after that, Lynch shocked everyone by attacking Valkyria, the woman who looked up to her as an idol.
The Man revealed herself to be the attacker of Lyra's original partner at WrestleMania 41, Bayley, and claimed that she would not have won at Mania without her. Following a heated exchange, Valkyria offered a WWE Women's Intercontinental Championship match to Lynch, which she accepted. With the match official for WWE Backlash, here are three reasons Becky Lynch could beat the champion for her title:

Becky Lynch and Lyra Valkyria are no strangers to each other inside the squared circle. The duo collided against each other back at the 2023 NXT Halloween Havoc Week One. To the surprise of many, Valkyria dethroned Lynch and won the NXT Women's Championship. The Man could get her revenge by beating her for the IC title at WWE Backlash. This win could bring their score to 1-1 and possibly set up another blockbuster match between them at a later PLE.
2. Lyra Valkyria's run has been lackluster
Lyra Valkyria has been making waves ever since being called up to the main roster back in 2024. Despite making history by becoming the first-ever WWE Women's Intercontinental Champion, Valkyria's run has not garnered much attention. Therefore, WWE could decide to take the title off her and move in a new direction with Becky Lynch as the champion.
1. Becky Lynch's star power could elevate the legacy of the title
There is no denying that Becky Lynch is one of the biggest WWE superstars of the modern era. The Man is a marquee attraction and commands star power like no other. With the WWE Women's Intercontinental title relatively new in the landscape, the company can capitalize on this title match set for WWE Backlash. Lynch dethroning Lyra Valkyria for the title could bring major attention to the belt. Moreover, her run as the new champion could elevate its legacy and make it an important championship in WWE.

Excl: Was it a good idea to put El Grande Americano, not CM Punk, in the WWE Money in the Bank match 2025? Expert weighs in
El Grande Americano beat CM Punk and AJ Styles in the main event of WWE Raw on June 2 to qualify for the Money in the Bank match 2025. This took many by surprise as they expected 'The Second City Saint' to punch his ticket for the marquee match. In an exclusive interview with Indiatimes, veteran writer Vince Russo weighed in on the situation . Vince Russo weighs in on El Grande Americano being in the Money in the Bank match El Grande Americano is set to lock horns with the likes of Seth Rollins and Solo Sikoa in the Money in Bank 2025 match on June 7. The 'legendary luchador' outlasted Styles and Punk in a controversial triple threat match on the red brand, which saw outside interference from the 'Paul Heyman guys'. According to writer Vince Russo, who is known for his work in WWE and WCW, CM Punk was his pick to secure the last spot in the match as he is a big star. 'El Grande Americano is Entertaining, but I think the match could use more star power and that's why I would have put CM Punk into the match,' he said. He, however, admitted that Americano is 'entertaining' and can pull off some high risk spots in the Money in the Bank Ladder match. This, according to him, makes him a good pick for the contest. 'With a Ladder Match they need High Spots for the Pops, so that's why Americano is in it,'added russo Interestingly, many in the WWE feel that Americano is actually Chad Gable under a mask. The American Made member is set to compete against Vikingo at World's Collide, which takes place on the same day as Money in the Bank. How did El Grande Americano fare at WrestleMania 41? Americano has emerged as a prominent member of the roster in no time. He scored a win over Rey Fenix (who was substituting for an injured Rey Mysterio) at WrestleMania 41, adding a new dimension to his career. Winning the Money in the Bank briefcase could put him in touching distance of winning the World Heavyweight Championship or the Undisputed title.
