Former Women’s World Champion Becky Lynch has not yet signed a new contract with WWE, and a recent announcement may have hinted significantly about her future. At King and Queen of the Ring, Becky Lynch lost her Women’s World title to Liv Morgan. She sought a rematch on the latest edition of WWE Raw on May 27, but interference from Dominik Mysterio once again thwarted her chance to reclaim the title.
Before her match against Liv Morgan, reports indicated that Becky Lynch’s contract expired on June 1. As June 1 passed, there was no update on her re-signing with WWE, marking her first time as a free agent in a decade.
Following news of her contract expiry and her match with Liv Morgan, Becky Lynch hinted at retirement, sparking speculation about whether the former WWE Women’s Champion is considering stepping away. However, recent reports suggest she is planning to take a hiatus from wrestling. Furthermore, WWE’s chief content officer, Triple H, acknowledged her hiatus during an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show.
While there is still no update on her current status with the promotion, WWE’s recent announcement of a partnership with English Premier League club Manchester City may hint at Becky Lynch’s future plans.
Update on Becky Lynch’s WWE status and what’s next for her
WWE has recently unveiled a new partnership with football club Manchester City. This collaboration will feature merchandise based on six WWE stars, past and present, including CM Punk and Roman Reigns. Becky Lynch was also named among those involved in the partnership.
Although Lynch has not yet officially re-signed with WWE, her participation in this new venture suggests she intends to stay. This decision is likely influenced by her husband Seth Rollins’ current affiliation with the promotion. Currently, there is no update on her return status.
