Becky Lynch came back from a short time-off on WWE programming
Prior reports from Wrestling Observer Newsletter noted that Seth Rollins would be taking some time off from the WWE though this break is not expected to be lengthy. Dave Meltzer also reported on WON that Becky Lynch is also believed to be going on hiatus for an indefinite period. But now it appears that the couple should be back in a quick timespan to be a part of WWE’s UK tour.
Becky Lynch had a good start in 2024 as she won the Women’s Elimination Chamber Match to secure a Women’s World Title Match at WrestleMania 40. She defeated Bianca Belair, Liv Morgan, Tiffany Stratton, Naomi, and Raquel Rodriguez to solidify her spot at the Show of Shows. Later, Rhea Ripley predictably defeated Nia Jax to retain her title and confirm her showdown with Big Time Becks.
Despite Becky Lynch’s valiant effort at WrestleMania 40, she was unable to dethrone Rhea Ripley and become a seven-time women’s champion in the WWE. Ripley secured her victory by delivering a powerful Riptide on her, earning a clean pinfall win. But two weeks later, Big Time Becks eventually won the title which was earlier vacated due to Ripley’s injury.
