Becky Lynch continues to win the Internet.
The women stole the headlined at WWE Survivor Series thanks to Charlotte Flair's attack on Ronda Rousey and Nia Jax's crowd heat over the punch that kept Becky Lynch off the card. Chris Jericho thought he was doing the right thing, praising WWE for how they've booked the women's division over the last week. But he tried to clap back at Becky Lynch. And that didn't work out so well for him.
Congrats @wwe for making womens wrestling hottest thing in #WWE! Who’s headlining #Wrestlemania? @BeckyLynchWWE @RondaRousey #Nia #Charlotte

The suckerpunch drew blood for sure. Little known fact though: I actually got the concussion from trying to listen to your last “album.”

Jericho tried to save face, bringing up Becky's past as a clown-in-training.
The one that went number 1 on @itunes w 30mill views on @youtube? Maybe go back to clown school for better material https://t.co/VStNPx06fR

As of this post, Becky has yet to respond. We will update this post should she offer a response.
On a recent episode of his podcast, Jericho called Jax's punch to Lynch "deliberate" and "legitimate." As previously reported, Lynch suffered a broken face and severe concussion from the strike.
