Maxxine Dupri Wins Intercontinental Gold with Help from AJ Lee – Maxxine Dupri achieved the biggest milestone of her WWE career on the November 17 edition of RAW, winning the WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship for the first time.
The match took place at Madison Square Garden in New York City and served as a rematch against Becky Lynch, who entered the bout with experience and championship credibility. Dupri, who has been a key part of the Alpha Academy since her arrival on RAW, entered the match as the underdog but walked out with championship gold after an unexpected twist involving the return of AJ Lee.
The rematch began with Dupri attacking aggressively at the opening bell, immediately pushing the pace to keep Lynch from gaining early control. Lynch attempted to regain momentum with a counter that sent Dupri to the mat, followed by corner offense designed to slow the challenger. When Lynch attempted to set up for the Manhandle Slam, Dupri fought out of it, which caused Lynch to transition into a reverse DDT backbreaker before the broadcast shifted to a commercial break.
The match continued with both competitors trading attempts at a decisive finish. Lynch appeared close to closing out the contest with a submission attempt, but Dupri refused to tap, remaining in the fight. Lynch then became distracted by a dispute with the referee, which created tension and shifted her attention away from Dupri. The atmosphere inside Madison Square Garden changed instantly when AJ Lee made a surprise return and received a loud reaction from the live crowd. Her presence diverted Lynch’s focus, allowing Dupri to recover long enough to secure the winning pinfall after a cross body from the top rope.
The win marked Dupri’s first singles title in WWE and established a new chapter in her on-screen career. The surprise involvement of AJ Lee also raised new questions surrounding the women’s division heading into upcoming WWE events. WrestlingAttitude.Com will continue to monitor updates related to Dupri’s title reign and AJ Lee’s return.
