More has come to light about the contract situation of Becky Lynch as the future of the former Women’s Champion in WWE remains unclear.
Lynch’s contract with WWE is set to expire on June 1, and while the two sides are said to be negotiating, a new deal isn’t believed to have been reached. On this week’s Raw, Lynch lost in the main event to WWE Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan. Lynch was visibly emotional after the match and bowed to the fans, leading some to speculate this was her final match in a WWE ring.
Becky Lynch’s Future
Lynch has not renewed her WWE contract at this time, PW Torch reports, but fans should not expect to see her in another promotion just yet. Contrary to what some have claimed, Lynch does not plan on joining AEW imminently and has made this clear to those in WWE.
Multiple sources state that Lynch does indeed to take a hiatus. It is unclear whether this break will be to spend more time at home with her family or if it is out of frustration with her contract situation with WWE. Lynch became a mother to her daughter Roux in late 2020.
A colleague of Lynch told PW Torch that the former Women’s Champion will return to WWE someday and is confident that a deal can be worked out. This belief is galvanized by the fact that Lynch’s husband Seth Rollins competes for WWE and her re-signing would keep the couple together on the road. With all that said, Lynch is of the view that her body and mind could use a break right now.
