Nikki Bella will challenge Becky Lynch for the WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship at Clash in Paris.

The match was confirmed during a segment on today’s WWE Raw from Birmingham, England. Lynch cut an in-ring promo that was interrupted by Bella, who said Lynch was afraid to face her. Lynch, who had been insulting the live crowd throughout the segment, eventually agreed to the match but said she wouldn’t do it in Birmingham.

“Will Nikki Bella leave Paris as the NEW Intercontinental Champion THIS SUNDAY?” WWE wrote on X.

“THE MAN IS NOT A COWARD! BECKY LYNCH will defend her Intercontinental Title against NIKKI BELLA at #WWEClash in Paris THIS SUNDAY!” WWE later added.
