It's a work and the more I think about it, the better I think it is. It gives Becky a target on her way to Rousey when she comes back, gets mad heat and works people up. I am hoping that Nia faces some consequences for the punch but in the meantime, I think this is the best way they could have handled it. Assuming Becky returns in the next month or sometime in January, they could advertise Becky vs. Nia for a house show or do it at whatever the PPV before WM is going to be (Fastlane?) Yeah, I figure they'd do it on a PPV shortly before WM and rehash things. I suspect they'll go the Austin/Rikishi route where she just destroys Nia as well to give her more momentum for facing Ronda. That makes the most sense to me anyways.

Becky Lynch completely strikes me as the type who would say “well, this sucks, but let’s draw some money out of it” . Nia is going to get some real heel heat out of this if WWE stays out of the way & the legend of Becky will only grow. Nia should hit the ring at SS & leave both Ronda and Charlotte laying and go on a reign of terror.
Ronda really needs help on these promos or she’s going to start getting booed out of buildings.

Would you all be mad of Becky went old school and potatoed Nia the next match? When Brock punched Strowman and told him to settle down, or when Ruby kicked Botch Mode in the face after she concussed Liv, many here thought those were appropriate reactions.
In kayfabe, I would go straight up to Nia, pull her aside, tell her I'm not mad but I'm going to get her a receipt, do it, and move on.
...or is that too carny?

Those examples you listed could be considered heat of the moment as they were almost immediately (or within a couple minutes) after the incidents that sparked them. This would be months down the road and incredibly petty. Given that they're weaving it into storylines, I imagine they've already made their peace somewhat.

It’s best for everyone in their line of work to not resort to that toxic mentality.

I'd give Becky shit for it and I'm sure plenty of others here would as well. I don't really see her doing something like that anyway, she's too nice. Plus she knows more than anyone how fragile a wrestler's career can be.

that's a lot of words to say, "I want you to get your face healed just so I can shatter it properly." It starts with calling her weak for getting injured... kinda undercutting the point as well... Not to mention Becky killed her much more succinctly.

Lana's better than Nia in my book.
That's just not what Nia didn't do in that Bayley situation.

good lord, member that Cm Punk line about 'arms too short to box with God?". Becky just shattered that. She needs to use that in a promo.

Oof, people on most sites are already putting their stacked hatred/dislike of Jax into this “apology” even though this is clearly kept in kayfabe.
I totally get ragging on Nia as it is her fault, but this reply was clearly kept in character.

Nia deserves the criticism. She isn’t good and doesn’t realize that someone her size can really hurt someone if she is careless about it (and she clearly is). Even if this is in kayfabe, let the hate flow. Brie got it, and Nia should as well. This is minor league shit. Accidents and careless mistakes are two different things.

Someone alert Nikki Bella. Because that's the Women's Revolution right there. Right f***ing there. Somebody get me a poster of that!

Not to mention Becky killed her much more succinctly. Rhonda's gotta knock it off with this millennial bullshit. First off, she's the same age as Becky, with a difference of only a few days. And secondly, if you're trying to talk shit, you need to do a lot better than that to compete with Becky, who in that tweet pretty much did the verbal equivalent of what Holly Holm did to Ronda
