A new report is confirming Becky Lynch is off Survivor Series!

The big story this afternoon we’ve been following has been the possible removal of SmackDown Women’s Champion Becky Lynch from Sunday’s Survivor Series after suffering a broken nose and possible concussion last night on RAW (see the initial story here).

That was followed by talk from Bryan Alvarez on Wrestling Observer Radio that Becky’s scheduled match against RAW Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey may become a Triple Threat, also saying the full extent of her injuries were not yet known (find that here). Now, another report is confirming that ‘The Lass Kicker’ is out of Survivor Series as PWInsider is backing the original story.

Additionally, it’s being said that all options are on the table in terms of who Ronda Rousey will face at Survivor Series. One such idea that has been tossed around would see Becky lose the SmackDown Women’s Title in quick fashion tonight on SmackDown Live, thus keeping Sunday’s match champion versus champion. Other names that have been brought up as a possible replacement for Becky without taking the championship are Mandy Rose and The IIconics, as they are not booked for the event. At last word, no decision had been made yet.

EA’s Take: I don’t think there’s anything WWE can do that can make up for Becky’s absence and there’s going to be complaints even with the company being in a tough spot. Personally, I’d just take Asuka out of the Elimination Match, put Mandy Rose in and then Asuka faces Rousey. Do you want to “feed” her to Ronda? Not necessarily, but it will still feel like a marquee match despite Asuka’s recent booking, in my opinion. You could go with Charlotte Flair, but I don’t think it’s necessary to blow through a possible WrestleMania match when the rest of the card can carry the show. I’m saving that.
