Becky Lynch is featured in the final spot of the current WWE Raw opening vignette suggesting that she’s the top-most superstar of the flagship show. Despite her latest hiatus, she remains one of the top attractions of WWE television and that’s been the case for the past few years now. It’s pretty obvious given that she’s been part of numerous historic moments over the past few years.
Back at Summerslam 2022, Becky Lynch was last seen on WWE TV where she challenged Bianca Belair for the RAW Women’s Championship. Despite all her efforts, she would end up losing the match marking a back-to-back loss to the EST of the WWE. Besides that, she also suffered a separated shoulder during the match, forcing her to go into a hiatus at a time when it was least expected.

After that match at Summerslam, Bayley, Dakota Kai, and Io Shirai made their returns to TV and tended to attack Belair but Becky Lynch stood by her side to turn babyface. Alexa Bliss and Asuka then had to align themselves with Belair during her feud with Damage Control amidst Lynch’s absence.

Becky Lynch attended the latest episode of Raw
The good thing is that absence could be coming to an end, sooner than later. According to a report by PWInsider, Becky Lynch was backstage at the latest episode of Monday Night Raw that took place at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, Minnesota.
It’s unclear if the former WWE Raw Women’s Champion was there simply for visiting purposes or if she is on the verge of returning to WWE programming. Her husband, Seth Rollins, appeared on the show to have an in-ring confrontation with Matt Riddle to hype things up for their Fight Pit match at Extreme Rules PLE.
When a wrestler is backstage a few weeks or months after an injury, it historically gives us signs of an impending return and now the popular theory also suggests that Becky Lynch is also inching closer to a return, much sooner than expected. When her injury occurred, it was reported that she was expected to miss several months before returning and that her injury may also require surgery to extend the hiatus.
There was also a point when Becky Lynch admitted that she will definitely be back by the time of Wrestlemania 39. However, if the latest report is any indication then the recovery time would be shorter than anticipated and she will not miss as much time as anticipated earlier.
