New Title Match Added to WWE Clash in Italy at Saturday Night's Main Event

Following the results of one of their non-title match at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event, Becky Lynch and Sol Ruca will now meet with the gold up for grabs at Clash In Italy on Sunday, May 31st.

Saturday night in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Lynch faced Ruca in a first time ever meeting that saw "The Man" trying to prove her superiority over the newest star on Monday Night Raw.

During this contest, Sol showcased her stunning arsenal of high flying manuevers, hitting springboard crossbodies and flipping clotheslines to the reigning WWE Women's Intercontinental Champion.

After keeping Lynch on her backfoot throughout this match, it looked like Ruca could make short work of "Big Time Becks" on this night. However, this was not meant to be.

While Lynch was able to avoid the Sol Snatcher finisher on her opponent's first try, Ruca once again looked for her signature move, but Becky pushed referee Jessika Carr in the way of the finisher, which led to her crashing into Sol.

When Carr eventually came to, the referee called for the bell and announced Sol Ruca as the winner of this bout via disqualification. Post match, Ruca went to check on Jessika Carr until Lynch came from behind and nailed her with the WWE Women's Intercontinental Title to the back.

Becky then proceeded to deliver the Manhandle Slam multiple times, leaving Ruca laying after sending a message.

Thanks to this DQ win, it seemed like Ruca had earned a shot at the gold, but it would soon be made official when Lynch made her way backstage.

Karma. 👏 👏 👏
