WWE Raw Women's champion Becky Lynch was not about to break rank and betray her Irish heritage when asked to predict the outcome of a potential rematch between Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov.

Unsurprisingly, it has set tongues wagging about the 31-year-old taking on UFC lightweight champion Khabib again.
