WWE hit Knoxville for Friday Night SmackDown this week. Seeing as that’s Bianca Belair’s hometown, the promotion went ahead and booked a celebration for her. That celebration included none other than The Mayor of Knox County, Glenn Jacobs, who we all know and love as Kane, making his return to present her with a key to the county.

The fans in the arena absolutely ate this up. Belair led them in the singing of a local song and it was a grand time for everyone involved, including her family, who were right there in the front row for all of it.
Then that damn Becky Lynch showed up.
She hit the scene to rub some salt in Bianca’s wounds, to taunt her, to pretend she was looking to be the bigger person by shaking her hand and telling her “this is your night,” even though SummerSlam was Becky’s night and Extreme Rules will be too. Bianca shook her hand, then tried an attack, and Lynch got the better of her.
So much for that celebration!
