This is changing because as the followers of the WWE shows may have seen, Becky Lynch has not renewed her contract with WWE which was due to expire this week. The fans of wrestling were awestruck with surprise and have been coming to terms with the reality that perhaps Lynch might have competed for the last time in RAW recent fixture.
Dave Meltzer, a well-known wrestling journalist, provided some insight into Lynch’s plans during a segment on Wrestling Observer Radio. Meltzer revealed that Lynch is planning an extended leave from WWE, a decision that appears to be influenced by her husband Seth Rollins’ similar break from the road. “She’s taking an extended leave, that’s what I was told. It’s not for a short period of time. It’s for a long period of time. If he’s [Seth Rollins] not on the road, it makes sense for her not to be on the road. They can’t be hurting for money right now, like they need it now,” Meltzer explained.
The announcement has sparked a flurry of discussions among fans and analysts. Lynch, one of WWE’s most prominent figures, has been a cornerstone of the women’s division and a key player in many major storylines. Her decision to step away raises questions about the future of the division and who will fill the void left by her absence.
Meanwhile, Tony Khan, the president of All Elite Wrestling (AEW), has also weighed in on the situation, expressing interest in potentially signing Lynch. However, it remains unclear if Lynch is considering joining another wrestling promotion or if she plans to take a complete break from the industry.
Lynch’s fans have reacted with a mix of disappointment and understanding. Many feel that after years of continuous performance, including her return to the ring after giving birth to her first child, Lynch deserves time off to focus on her personal life and well-being. The wrestling world will undoubtedly miss her presence, but there is also a sense of anticipation about what she will choose to do next.
As Becky Lynch steps away from WWE, the landscape of professional wrestling is poised for change. Whether her absence is temporary or long-term, her impact on the industry is undeniable. Lynch’s journey from an underdog to a trailblazer has left an indelible mark on WWE, and fans will eagerly await any news of her return.
For now, the focus shifts to Liv Morgan and the other talented women of WWE who will carry the torch in Lynch’s absence. The coming months will be a test of resilience and adaptation for the company as they navigate this significant transition.
