Becky Lynch Retains Title, Debuts New Theme at SummerSlam

Becky Lynch successfully defended her Women's Intercontinental Championship against Lyra Valkyria in a No Disqualification Match at WWE SummerSlam 2025, ensuring Valkyria cannot challenge for the title again while Lynch remains champion. Lynch debuted a new entrance theme by The Wonder Years, her first major music change in over a decade, featuring full lyrics and a voiceover highlighting her persona 'The Man.' Bayley attempted to interfere in the match but inadvertently cost Valkyria her opportunity, intensifying speculation about future challengers. Some fans and commentators have dubbed Lynch 'Becky Hogan' in reference to her dominance and frequent title opportunities, a label she has responded to by embracing a gatekeeper role within the division. Despite receiving criticism for recent in-ring performances, Lynch's successful defense and new music signal a refreshed chapter in her WWE career. The event took place at MetLife Stadium during the two-night SummerSlam event.
