‘The Man’ Becky Lynch has reportedly put pen to paper on a new contract with WWE
Becky Lynch is one of the all-time greats in the WWE female division despite not having the longest on-screen careers.
Having made her main roster debut in 2015 as a fan favourite, she quickly rose to the top to make herself one of the top-paid stars in the promotion and feature in some of the most iconic pro-wrestling matches ever.
Lynch has not been in action since April 2020 when she defended her WWE RAW women’s title against current tag team champion, Shayna Baszler, at WrestleMania 36.
It was reported that she was on maternity leave due to a real-life pregnancy. Lynch and her husband, Seth Rollins, welcomed their first child together back in December 2020.
WWE President & Chief Revenue Officer Nick Khan mentioned last month that Lynch, alongside Ronda Rousey, are expected to make their returns.
Becky Lynch signs new contract and could make WWE return soon
There is no update regarding that but Ringside News (h/t WrestlingInc) has reported that Lynch has quietly signed a new contract with WWE.
The Irishwoman last renewed her WWE contract in 2019 which was believed to stand at $1million at that time, making her one of the highest paid pro wrestlers in the world.
This news is certainly music to the ears of WWE fans because it highlights the intentions of both parties to have Lynch back on RAW again.
In the midst of all this, her Twitter bio also mentions ‘Time to go to work’ which is a further indication that Becky Two Belts is ready to return home.
But it remains to be seen when that is. The duration and terms of her new contract have not been mentioned in any official sources but there should be more clarity on that in the coming weeks.
