WWE SmackDown: Becky Lynch slaps Triple H

By Jefferson Lake, WWE Editor @jeffersonlake

Becky Lynch once again allowed her frustration to get the better of her with an attack on Triple H

For the second night in a row, Becky Lynch assaulted a member of the WWE's corporate structure by slapping Triple H.

Just 24 hours after putting a beating on the company's chief brand officer Stephanie McMahon, Lynch was again on the attack with a vicious slap to her husband, Triple H.

WWE Late Night Smackdown

The Game had arrived on SmackDown to intercept a stand-off between Charlotte Flair - who taunted the Lass Kicker by emphasising her match fitness - and Lynch, who is technically suspended by WWE.

Triple H's theory was a sound one: that Lynch is refusing to seek medical advice on her knee injury not because she is worried she won't be cleared to fight Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania but because she will be cleared.

Lynch herself does not buy into that fear of failure, at least not publicly, and emphasised that point with a slap across the face, for which there will surely be severe repercussions.

Chaos reigns as SmackDown concludes

The six-way bid for the WWE championship is now at full intensity after every man attempted to gain an Elimination Chamber advantage on SmackDown.

Jeff Hardy had the win in the bag against champion Daniel Bryan only for Erick Rowan to interfere and cost him a non-title win, before Samoa Joe came out to attack the title-holder.

That led to run-ins from Randy Orton, Mustafa Ali and AJ Styles as the crowd were treated to an all-out brawl and given a glimpse of what to expect at the Elimination Chamber on Sunday, February 17.
