Whats the story?

Cris Cyborg recently used a fan-made poster to challenge Becky Lynch to a match at Summerslam, and the Irish Lass Kicker was quick to retort.

Cyborg is a former Strikeforce and Invicta FC Womens Featherweight Champion who currently competes in the UFC. Although shes had certain issues with various promoters, the Brazilian mixed martial artist hasnt tasted defeat in almost twelveyears.

Cyborg and Lynch had a rather lengthy back and forth on Twitter; in fact, they even mentioned Triple H and Dana White during their exchange. While this was nothing more than playful banter, it appears that the worlds of mixed martial arts and professional wrestling are more willing to cross over than ever.

Cyborg has an iron clad contract with UFC, and she cant make an appearance at Summerslam without her employers permission. She also doesnt have a recognised professional wrestling background, so its practicallyimpossible for her to have a meaningful match with Lynch.

Becky Lynch and Cyborg are two talented performers who are the top of their respective professions. They might never have a professional wrestling match, but both of these women have a lot to offer the world of combat sports.
