WWE Saturday Night's Main Event Match Is Now Listed As Title Bout
WWE has upgraded Becky Lynch vs. Sol Ruca to a Women's Intercontinental Championship match at Saturday Night's Main Event on May 23, reversing the non-title stipulation announced on Monday's Raw.
WWE posted on Instagram confirming the change, writing that Lynch will put the Women's Intercontinental Championship on the line against Ruca. The promotional poster also lists the bout as a title match.
The bout was originally set up on Raw when Lynch offered Ruca a match at Saturday Night's Main Event after Ruca called her out. When Ruca attempted to make it a title fight on the spot, Lynch declined. WWE has since changed course.
The full Saturday Night's Main Event lineup for May 23 is as follows:
- Six-Woman Tag Team Match: Rhea Ripley, Charlotte Flair, and Alexa Bliss vs. Jade Cargill, Michin, and B-Fab
- WWE World Tag Team Championships: The Vision (Austin Theory and Logan Paul) (c) vs. The Street Profits (Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins)
- WWE Intercontinental Championship: Penta (c) vs. Ethan Page
- WWE Women's Tag Team Championship: Scream Mode (Paige and Brie Bella) (c) vs. Irresistible Forces (Lash Legend and Nia Jax)
