Becky Lynch has been in charge of the women's division on WWE for the last year. She main-evented WrestleMania and was even a double champion for some time. However, she has been off of Monday Night RAW for the last several weeks and, although many assumed she was not comfortable working during the COVID-19 pandemic, the real reason was revealed on last night's episode of RAW.
Hitting the ring following one of the most unique pay-per-view events in the company's long history, Becky Lynch made her return on the post-Money In The Bank episode of RAW. She made a huge announcement with the fans at home, which would explain why she's been missing in action.
Becky Lynch is pregnant and will be relinquishing the RAW Women's Championship. She is expecting her first child with fellow WWE Superstar Seth Rollins. The two have been dating for over a year.
"Tonight is no ordinary night for me," said The Man, Becky Lynch. "I'm torn between joy and sadness, 'cause I'm at a place in my life where things are about to change and I needed to do something about it. I have to go away for a while."
Asuka, who won the Money In The Bank briefcase on the weekend, will now hold the title.
"You go and be a warrior, 'cause I'm gonna go be a mother," said Lynch to the new champion, who gave her a big hug and congratulated her.
Congratulations to Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins!
