Possibility of Hiatus and AEW Move Speculated
Summary
– Becky Lynch’s contract with WWE is set to expire this week.
– Lynch lost her rematch against Liv Morgan on RAW, casting doubts on her WWE future.
– Insiders suggest Lynch plans to take a hiatus rather than join AEW.
Becky Lynch, a key figure in WWE for years, recently saw her Women’s World Champion tenure end in a match against Liv Morgan at WWE King & Queen of the Ring. Her bid for redemption on the May 27 episode of RAW ended in another defeat to Morgan, fueling speculation about her future with WWE.
With Lynch’s contract set to expire this week, her latest appearance on RAW might be her last before potentially re-signing with WWE. The possibility of her departure has sparked rumors about a move to AEW.
According to PWTorch, Lynch has been telling people she does not plan to join AEW imminently. Instead, multiple insiders suggest Lynch is considering a hiatus. The reasons behind this break are unclear; it might be to rest and recover from the demanding schedule or dissatisfaction with WWE’s contract offer.
A colleague of Lynch’s mentioned to PWTorch that she needs a break while she intends to return to WWE eventually. Given that her husband, Seth Rollins, is a full-time WWE wrestler, there is confidence that they can negotiate a deal upon her return. Lynch’s body and mind may benefit from some time off.
Following her loss on RAW, Lynch sent out a cryptic message, adding to the uncertainty about her future. Only time will tell whether Lynch will take an extended break from WWE and eventually sign a lucrative contract with the company.
