Maxxine Dupri Wasn’t Originally Booked to Win WWE Women’s Intercontinental Title
Natalya revealed that Maxxine Dupri wasn't originally scheduled to win the WWE Women's Intercontinental Championship from Becky Lynch in November 2025, but plans changed after Dupri's strong performance in their first match together. According to Natalya in a January 26, 2026 video on Bayley's YouTube channel, Dupri's preparation and confidence during that initial encounter altered the creative direction, leading to her surprise title victory at Madison Square Garden. Natalya later helped Lynch regain the championship on January 19, 2026, in Belfast by turning on Dupri.
