WWE 2K20 video released featuring Becky Lynch *Updated*

Update: WWE has confirmed that Becky Lynch will be on the cover of 2K20 along with Roman Reigns.

WWE is planning to announce their next yearly video game 2K installment tomorrow on Aug. 5. A video has leaked a day before which may allude that Becky Lynch will be featured on the cover of the new game.

In the video, we see several WWE male superstars both past and present hobnobbing at a fancy party. The party comes to a halt as ‘The Man’ herself Becky Lynch comes crashing through the glass ceiling. Lynch approaches Hulk Hogan and says, “sorry about your ceiling.”

Roman Reigns then enters and hands Lynch a drink and says, “nice work man,” and the two share in a clink of their glasses.

The video ends with both Reigns and Lynch as the focal point. This could reference that both will be featured on the cover in some capacity. They could be either featured together or perhaps there will be two different covers.

Lynch recently spoke with Vicente Beltrán from ViBe & Wrestling about the possibility of being on a 2K cover. Reported by Wrestling Inc. she had the following to say,

“[Being on the cover of WWE 2K20] would be the next step, wouldn’t it? Yeah it’s always about the next step and it’s always about being the first,” Lynch said. “‘The Man’ is synonymous with the first: the first main event of WrestleMania, the first main event of SmackDown, in the first women’s ladder match, in the first Royal Rumble, first SmackDown Live Women’s Champion. It’s all about being the first, so being the first woman on the cover of 2K20 would be awesome.”

If Lynch is confirmed to be on the cover of 2K20 this will be the first time a woman has graced the cover of a 2K cover. The 2K line has been present since 2K14 which was released in 2013. Women have been on prior video games along with their male counterparts. There hasn’t been a woman on a cover since 2007. That cover saw Torrie Wilson along with Triple H, Batista, Rey Mysterio, and John Cena.

Beth Phoenix on the restrictions that were on the Diva’s division

Ring The Belle receives a once in a lifetime interview with the Glamazon herself Beth Phoenix. The four-time champion and Hall of Famer sat down with DS Shin to go over the fan-voted top five moments. During these moments she goes over her feuds with Candice Michelle, Kelly Kelly, and Melina. She also discusses the wonderful friendship she has developed with Natalya.

Phoenix was a focal point during the Diva era of WWE. This time was filled with many obstacles and restrictions for the women to receive matches and to be taken seriously on TV. She explains how she made it around those obstacles and restrictions during that time.

“We just tried our best to work within our comfort zones. We had to do things that weren’t great. I had to do bikini shoots. I had to do bra and panties matches. I had to do a lot of stuff I didn’t love and didn’t want to do. But I knew at the end, I’m here to entertain and make people happy. And I knew it would change. I knew in my heart, someday if we don’t give up, it’s gonna change. And it has.”

As a result of how far women have come in the WWE, Phoenix recalls her tearful reaction to the first crowning of the Women’s Tag Team Championship.

“That was so special. It did mean a lot to me because the girls felt as passionately as myself and Nattie. It wasn’t always nice. It was always a battle. It was always a fight. Every week you knew it was gonna be a fight. So I appreciated that the girls continued to fight and they got a win. That felt like a win.”

As a result of the fans picking her match against Eve at Survivor Series as a top moment, Phoenix divulges some juicy details about that match. Most particularly her memorable Super Glam Slam spot on Eve.

“It was Madison Square Garden. The same place where Bret vs. Owen took place, which is the match that inspired me to become a wrestler. And also, this particular move, we weren’t supposed to do in the match. This is pipebomb, but we were not supposed to do that move. Eve and I were like, we’ll take the flack. Whatever flack comes from this spot, they were concerned of the danger aspect, it was too dangerous, which I get that. But Eve and I knew that that would be the moment from the match. This is what it will take to make the match memorable, and we’re in Madison Square Garden….We took a risk, and we believed in ourselves. Obviously, fans remember it.”

Phoenix also comments on the wild feud that has been happening between both her husband, Edge, and RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch on Twitter. From this, she explains her thoughts on her bestie Natalya facing Lynch at SummerSlam.

“I’m looking so forward to Becky and Natalya at SummerSlam. My best friend against somebody that I feel has changed the business. So I am really excited for SummerSlam.”
