Becky Lynch reacted to her loss on social media, blaming WWE referee Jessika Carr for bias. She wrote, “I have recovered the unedited footage which clearly shows that I was attacked by a rogue bee at the end of the match. I have not tapped out in over 6 years and if it wasn’t for the blatant bias of that crooked referee who so obviously saw that I was being ambushed by the vicious winged insect predator, I would have been declared the winner. @WWE”
