Becky Lynch Sets Unwanted Record After Losing WWE Women’s Intercontinental Title to Sol Ruca at Clash in Italy

At WWE Clash in Italy in Turin, Sol Ruca defeated Becky Lynch to capture the Women’s Intercontinental Championship after countering a manhandle slam into the Sol Snatcher for the pinfall. The victory came in the fourth match of the night, crowning Ruca as the new champion in her first main-roster singles title win just weeks after moving to RAW.

Lynch’s third reign was shockingly short-lived at just 43 days, making her the shortest-ever Women’s Intercontinental Champion and eclipsing the previous 49-day low held by AJ Lee and Maxxine Dupri; Lynch still holds the record for the longest reign at 163 days from an earlier run. Ruca’s big win marks a rapid rise since her main roster debut and reshuffles the women’s midcard picture heading into the summer.
