Becky Lynch competed in one of the co-main-events of Summerslam 2022 premium live event in a title match. She tried to regain her Raw Women’s Championship by featuring in Wrestlemania 38 rematch against Bianca Belair at the biggest show of the summer. Apart from digesting the big pinfall loss on that night, she also ended up suffering a separate shoulder.
The following night on Raw, Becky Lynch was attacked by Damage CTRL – Bayley, Dakota Kai, and IYO SKY so that her injury could be portrayed from a storyline perspective. Ever since she hasn’t been on television due to the injury. Via social media, it’s been spotted that she’s changed up her looks in recent times so that ‘The MAN’ gimmick could be showcased upon her return in due course.

It was previously reported that Becky Lynch would be out of action for several months especially if she had to undergo surgery. However, given that she was back in the gym in no time, speculations have already begun about her return being preponed. Also, she was backstage at the October 3 episode of Monday Night Raw in St Paul, Minnesota which was yet another indication of an early comeback to TV.

Possible rumor killer about Becky Lynch’s WWE return
In an update to the situation, Sean Sapp posted via Fightful and thereby gave a bit of a rumor killer. It was previously said that Becky Lynch will be back by September which was baseless and hence not confirmed by anyone. At this point, there is hope, backstage in WWE that the top attraction on Monday nights will be back by the end of 2022. However, nothing is confirmed, as of this writing.
“Upon sustaining her injury at WWE SummerSlam, WWE’s hope was that Becky Lynch would be able to avoid surgery and would return in a few months with rehab. We were told that her doctors and physical therapists had thought it would be at least a couple of months before she could get near a ring. There’s no definitive timetable on her return.
Those that we spoke to within WWE creative said they were hoping to have Becky Lynch back by the end of the year, but that wasn’t guaranteed, and was more being optimistic in the hope that she wouldn’t have surgery.”
We have to wait and see when Becky Lynch returns to TV, but there is hope that she will return by the Royal Rumble so that she could be inserted into WWE’s Road to WrestleMania 39 for a top match. The popular belief is that she will face Ronda Rousey at this Hollywood edition of WrestleMania that takes place at the SoFi Stadium.
