— Becky Lynch has been absent from WWE TV for several months, taking an extended leave of absence after her last contract with the company expired. Initially, it fueled a lot of speculation on her future with rumors of a retirement to a possible jump to rival promotion AEW being tossed around.

— However, Lynch is more or less confirmed to be returning to WWE as she was one of many stars on hand as WWE and Netflix kicked off their relationship. That would presumably mean she has signed a new contract and reports now suggest that Becky is scheduled to return as early as next week for the Raw premiere on Netflix. The WrestleVotes account is reporting that Becky’s imminent return will factory “heavily” into high-level WrestleMania plans as WWE kicks of 2025 and begins building towards their biggest event of the year in Las Vegas. It is rumored that Lynch will be slotted onto Raw again and be involved in some fashion in the Liv Morgan – Rhea Ripley storyline.

Sources confirm Becky Lynch’s impending return will factor heavily into high-level WrestleMania plans as the road to Las Vegas begins.
