Speculation is rife following reports that Becky Lynch‘s contract with WWE is expiring soon. Recently, AEW star Chris Jericho shared his thoughts on the matter. Lynch’s current contract with WWE expires on June 1, this Saturday. It has been reported that both Becky Lynch and WWE have not come to an agreement for a new contract. If Lynch doesn’t sign a new contract by Saturday, she will become a free agent and can make a move to any promotion.
In a recent interview with TMZ Sports, AEW star Chris Jericho discussed Becky Lynch’s contract situation. He also mentioned how AEW’s presence has provided wrestlers with more options. He stated, “Five years ago, Becky would have no other options. Not saying that she’s coming [to AEW], but there is an option. And who knows what could happen? No one thought that Jericho would come to AEW. No one thought that Moxley would come or Bryan Danielson or Adam Cole or any of these guys that have come over. So it’s exciting for the fans. And it’s exciting for the wrestlers, the talent, because now suddenly if there’s a bidding war, that just benefits [us wrestlers].”
The next few days will be intriguing as fans wait to see if Becky Lynch re-signs with WWE, becomes a free agent, or whether AEW extends her contract offer.
