But Lee returned tonight on RAW as Women\u2019s Intercontinental Champion <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wrestlezone.com\/tag\/becky-lynch\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Becky Lynch<\/a> was trying to cheat to defeat <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wrestlezone.com\/tag\/maxxine-dupri\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Maxxine Dupri<\/a> and retain her title.<\/p>\n<p>Lee\u2019s distraction was enough to give Dupri time to recover and surprise Lynch with a top rope crossbody pin to become the new Women\u2019s Intercontinental Champion. Dupri celebrated her victory with Lee in the aisleway as Lynch looked on at both women, shocked. <\/p>\n<p>Here is a recap of the Women\u2019s Intercontinental Championship match courtesy of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wrestlezone.com\/news\/1591156-wwe-raw-results-review-grades-card-for-nov-17\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">live coverage page<\/a>: <\/p>\n<p>As soon as the bell rings, Dupri lands a big boot and gets a long two count. Dupri goes up top. Lynch slams Dupri off the top and works over her arm. After the break, Dupri fires up and lands a flurry. Lynch and Dupri trade submission hold. Lynch almost taps to the Ankle Lock. Manhandle Slam by Lynch. <\/p>\n<p>Dupri gets her foot on the rope. Lynch gets in referee Carr\u2019s face, yet again. Lynch pokes the ref. Ref Carr bows up at Lynch. As the referee is distracted, Lynch tries to take off the turnbuckle pad. AJ Lee\u2019s music hits. Lee skips to ringside. Lynch turns around and walks into a crossbody from Dupri! Dupri wins!

Rhea Ripley, looking to speak with AJ Lee backstage, certainly appeared that way. But does WWE have other plans for these two women? It seems we\u2019ll find out soon enough. <\/p>\n<p>WrestleZone will have live coverage of WWE Survivor Series: WarGames later this month. <\/p>\n<p>READ MORE: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wrestlezone.com\/news\/1591156-wwe-raw-results-review-grades-card-for-nov-17\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">John Cena\u2019s Final WWE RAW Opponents Revealed<\/a><\/p>\n<p>What did you think of AJ Lee\u2019s return tonight on WWE RAW?
