Currently, WWE has booked Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch in the main event match at Extreme Rules with a huge stipulation added to it. It will be a ‘Winner Take All’ match where both the Universal and Women’s Championships will be on the line. It is quite a smart move from WWE’s perspective to keep the two hottest names of sports entertainment on the spotlight to produce money out of them.

But before doing so, WWE had to consult with the two names for obvious reasons. Becky Lynch previously revealed that she was never comfortable to bring her real-life relation on TV. She also refused to feature on Total Divas for the same reason. But this time around her partner, Seth Rollins revealed they made the move to ‘strike while the iron’s hot’.
Seth Rollins recently talked with Sports Illustrated media to reveal the exact reason why they have agreed to make their relationship public. Check it out from his own words, (courtesy wrestlingINC.com)
“When you’re first approached about the idea, you’re kind of like, “How is it going to work? Is it going to work? If you look at the way couples have been portrayed in the past, it’s a bit sketchy, especially on the woman’s end.

Once we sat down and brainstormed how cool it might be and the options that were in front of us on the table, we decided it would actually be a fun thing to do and a cool thing to do and really strike while the iron’s hot.”

The reports of Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch seeing each other were out prior to Wrestlemania 35. The Beast-slayer also confirmed the same in this interview stating they started dating in February. They really did not want to hide this from the public as they attended concerts, restaurants together. Here’s more on this,
“We started seeing each other in February and I don’t think we let the cat out of the bag until April. But weren’t taking extreme measures like she was walking around with a mustache. We did what we did and eventually she put the thing on Twitter when she was arguing with Beth and Edge.”
Becky Lynch had an argument on Twitter with Edge and Beth Phoenix where she accepted Seth Rollins as his man. This was the first time that she accepted the relationship in public. Furthermore, Seth Rollins shared a picture of a cozy moment from Wrestlemania 35 to solidify that statement. With their popularity intact, WWE may keep on cashing on them in more future storylines.
