Referee Rebecca showed no regret after changing the championship match
Summary
– Becky Lynch stopped counting when Liv Morgan appeared to have Stephanie Vaquer defeated
– Vaquer capitalized on the opening to win the WWE Women’s World Championship
– Lynch later mocked Morgan with a warning about Referee Rebecca
Becky Lynch has responded after helping Stephanie Vaquer take the WWE Women’s World Championship from Liv Morgan.
Lynch served as the special guest referee for the title match during WWE’s live event in Santiago, Chile, on September 12, 2026.
Morgan appeared to have the match won after hitting Vaquer with Oblivion. Lynch counted to two before deliberately stopping her hand from hitting the mat a third time.
The special guest referee then looked at Morgan and flipped her off. The confrontation gave Vaquer enough time to recover and take control of the match.
Vaquer connected with the SVB before delivering the Vaquer Inferno. She pinned Morgan to become a two-time WWE Women’s World Champion in front of her home-country fans.
Triple H later shared footage of the finish on social media. Lynch responded directly and warned Morgan not to mess with Referee Rebecca.
Lynch did not apologize for her actions or claim that the interrupted count was a mistake. Her response made it clear that preventing Morgan from retaining the championship was intentional.
The loss ended Morgan’s title reign after 148 days. She had successfully defended the championship twice, including a victory over Vaquer five days earlier on WWE RAW.
Vaquer left Chile as champion, but Lynch’s involvement created another issue beyond the title change. Morgan now has a clear reason to target the woman who deliberately prevented her from winning.
Lynch does not appear concerned about the consequences. Her first response showed that she was prepared to stand behind what she had done and face Morgan afterward.
