Becky Lynch slapped CM Punk on WWE RAW

WWE Clash in Paris 2025 delivered a shocking twist when Becky Lynch low-blowed CM Punk, helping her husband, Seth Rollins, escape with the World Heavyweight Championship.

If that wasn’t enough, Lynch doubled down on RAW, answering Punk’s callout in place of Rollins. Instead of words, she resorted to repeated slaps, further inflaming one of WWE’s most heated rivalries.

An irate Punk warned her on live TV: “You’re gonna regret putting your hands on me.” With tempers flaring, the WWE Universe is now buzzing with speculation. What exactly could Becky face after provoking The Best in the World?

3. CM Punk costs her Women’s Intercontinental Title

Becky Lynch currently reigns as the WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion after defeating Nikki Bella at Clash in Paris. However, Nikki’s loss was controversial, and a rematch feels inevitable. If Punk truly wants payback, he could tilt the scales in Bella’s favor and cost Lynch her championship.

Such a move would hit Becky on both a personal and professional level, undermining her hard-fought momentum. Punk interfering in her title picture would not only humiliate her but also drive home his warning that actions have consequences.

2. CM Punk could take the feud into Rollins’ and Becky’s home

The Seth Rollins–CM Punk rivalry has already crossed personal boundaries. At Clash in Paris, Rollins told Punk he hated him and his family. Now, with Becky’s involvement, Punk has even more motivation to escalate things.

What if he takes it beyond the ring? A shocking invasion of the Rollins-Lynch household could make the feud more intense than ever. Punk targeting their private lives would raise the stakes, blurring the line between storyline and reality, and cementing this as one of WWE’s most personal grudges in years.

1. AJ Lee could return to confront Becky Lynch

Perhaps the most tantalizing possibility is the return of AJ Lee. The former Divas Champion has been away for nearly a decade, but Becky Lynch repeatedly striking her husband could be the perfect trigger for her comeback.

Hints were dropped when CM Punk smirked during a SmackDown announcement in Chicago, his hometown and AJ’s as well. A surprise appearance from AJ could flip the script entirely, leading to a blockbuster mixed tag showdown: Punk and Lee vs Rollins and Lynch at WWE WrestlePalooza.

Why did Becky Lynch slap CM Punk on RAW?

Lynch intervened on behalf of her husband, Seth Rollins, escalating the rivalry and showing zero fear of Punk.

Could CM Punk really interfere in Becky’s title defense?

Yes. WWE often blends personal rivalries into championship storylines, and Punk costing Becky her title would be a fitting revenge angle.

Is AJ Lee actually returning to WWE?

Nothing is confirmed, but multiple teases have fueled speculation that her comeback could be imminent, especially with Punk’s feud heating up.
