The former champion is reportedly set to remain off WWE television through the summer event
Summary
– Becky Lynch is reportedly expected to return to WWE after SummerSlam
– Lynch has not appeared on television since the June 8 episode of Raw
– WWE has not announced an exact date or storyline for her comeback
Becky Lynch is reportedly expected to remain away from WWE television until after SummerSlam.
WrestleVotes addressed her status during a July 20 question-and-answer session, stating that Lynch is scheduled to return once the major summer event has passed.
The update means SummerSlam will likely take place without one of WWE’s most established women’s stars.
Lynch last appeared on the June 8 episode of Raw when she failed to qualify for the Queen of the Ring tournament.
Her absence followed a loss to Sol Ruca at Clash in Italy, where Lynch dropped the WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship.
Lynch reacted to the defeat by blaming the referee and claiming she had been robbed of the title.
She also joked about suffering a hematoma and questioned whether Ruca’s footwear met WWE regulations.
The comments continued Lynch’s on-screen character direction, but she has not returned to television since the loss.
WWE has not revealed the exact reason for the extended hiatus or confirmed when her next appearance will take place.
Her return could restart the rivalry with Ruca or place Lynch into a completely different story following SummerSlam.
Fans will now have to wait until WWE’s biggest event of the summer is complete before expecting The Man back on television.
