Becky Lynch ‘Re-Injures’ Knee At SmackDown Live Event

Since the Royal Rumble, WWE has been trying to convince fans that Becky Lynch is suffering from a legitimate knee injury.

Now that she’s been “pulled” from her match with Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania, it seems odd that they feel the need to keep up the charade, but there you go.

WWE.com has released the following statement, which says Becky injured her knee while trying to interfere at a house show:

During a SmackDown live event in Alexandria, La., Saturday night, Becky Lynch suddenly leaped over the barricade from the crowd and attacked Charlotte Flair as The Queen was facing SmackDown Women’s Champion Asuka. In the heated altercation that followed, an irate Charlotte re-injured Becky’s knee, going as far to attack it with a steel chair.

The exchange comes off the heels of WWE Chairman Mr. McMahon’s ruling on Raw that Becky receive a 60-day suspension from in-ring action and that Charlotte replace her in the Raw Women’s Championship Match at WrestleMania 35 against Ronda Rousey. Then, 24 hours later on SmackDown LIVE, Flair further stirred the pot by informing the WWE Universe that she was dedicating her title match at The Showcase of the Immortals to Lynch.

Check back with WWE.com for more on Becky Lynch’s injury as it becomes available.

They also posted the below video just in case you don’t believe them for some reason.
