Becky Lynch, the former WWE Women’s World Champion, generated significant speculation about her return during RAW’s premiere episode on Netflix. Fans expected her to appear after she featured in the promo for the January 6th RAW edition. Despite being absent from WWE programming for several months, Lynch attended a WWE and Netflix media event last month.
After Lynch’s appearance in the Netflix promo and her attendance at the media event, many believed she would make her highly anticipated return at the Inuit Dome in Los Angeles this week. Reports surfaced a few days ago, revealing WWE’s plans to feature Lynch prominently in high-level WrestleMania 41 storylines.
Many anticipated Lynch would confront the winner of the Women’s World Title match between Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan. However, Ripley defeated Morgan to win the title, and instead of Lynch’s return, Ripley shared a moment with WWE Hall of Famer The Undertaker, who posed with her on the entrance ramp. With Lynch not appearing on the show, reports have revealed what led to her missing out on the WWE RAW Netflix premiere.
Reports revealed Becky Lynch WWE RAW return plans were canceled
According to a report from Bodyslam, Becky Lynch was in Los Angeles and initially scheduled to appear. She was originally set to appear after the Women’s World title match between Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan. However, the promotion changed the plans, giving The Undertaker a moment with Rhea Ripley instead.
The reports indicate that Becky Lynch will return soon, and when she does, her role in WrestleMania 41 will be clear. Lynch, who last faced Liv Morgan, recently lost her Women’s World Title to Rhea Ripley.
As WrestleMania 41 approaches, it will be interesting to see how things unfold in the Women’s World title scene. The recent title change could potentially lead to a triple-threat match or a rematch between Ripley and Lynch from last year’s WrestleMania. Only time will tell.
