WWE: Triple H may be planning major twist for Becky Lynch’s return

Vince Russo suggests new Women’s Intercontinental Champion Lyra Valkyria could turn heel to feud with returning Becky Lynch.

Lyra Valkyria’s Women’s Intercontinental Championship victory on RAW might set the stage for Becky Lynch’s return, according to former WWE writer Vince Russo. The new champion’s connection with Lynch could lead to a teacher-versus-student storyline.

Valkyria made history by becoming the inaugural Women’s Intercontinental Champion after defeating Dakota Kai. The 28-year-old star has previously acknowledged Lynch as a mentor figure in her career.

Russo shared his perspective on Sportskeeda Wrestling’s Legion of RAW:

I think this is their opening to bring Becky back. People love Becky, bro. It would be an uphill battle to turn her. I would have Valkyria assume Becky’s role and she replaces Becky and she’s the pride of her country. I would go down that road.

Lynch’s contract status with WWE

Reports from Fightful indicate Lynch has signed a new WWE contract, though terms remain undisclosed. Lynch’s previous agreement expired in June, with both parties planning to reach a new deal upon her return.

Lynch last competed in May 2023, losing a Steel Cage match to Liv Morgan. While specific return plans and WrestleMania involvement remain unconfirmed, she’s expected to factor into WWE’s upcoming major events.

Becky Lynch May Return to Pro-Wrestling, But Not at a WWE Event

WWE superstar Becky Lynch shares photos from IWRG’s Arena Naucalpan in Mexico City today, generating speculation about a potential appearance at the promotion’s upcoming Armageddon event.

Becky Lynch has created significant buzz in the wrestling world by sharing photos from Mexico that suggest a potential appearance outside WWE. The RAW superstar posted images on her Instagram Stories today showing her at Arena Naucalpan in Mexico City, home of International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG Lucha Libre).

Lynch posted multiple photos confirming her presence at the IWRG venue. She shared one image showing her location as Arena Naucalpan and another directly confirming she was at IWRG. A third photo displayed Seth Rollins’ Monday Night Messiah merchandise for sale at the location.

This unexpected development comes during Lynch’s prolonged absence from WWE competition. Her last match occurred on May 27, 2024, when she lost a RAW Steel Cage match against then-Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan.

The timing is particularly interesting as Lynch’s WWE contract reportedly expired in June following her loss to Morgan at WWE King and Queen of the Ring. However, reports in January indicated she had signed a new WWE agreement.

Lynch has not revealed the specific purpose of her Mexico visit as of this writing. IWRG has its Armageddon event scheduled for this Sunday at the same arena, featuring Mistico and Gran Metalik among other talents.

Fan speculation suggests this could potentially be the beginning of a WWE comeback tour with appearances in independent promotions, though no official confirmation exists regarding her participation in the upcoming IWRG show.

Reason Behind Becky Lynch’s Delayed WWE Return Revealed

Contract negotiations with new management agency affected Becky Lynch’s WWE return timeline after she agreed to re-sign with the company following her late 2024 contract expiration.

Becky Lynch has signed a new WWE contract but her return to television has been delayed due to contract finalization details with her new management agency. According to Wrestling Informer’s Billi Bhatti, the hold-up involves Lynch and Seth Rollins changing representation to handle both of their deals.

Lynch agreed to re-sign with WWE after her contract expired in late 2024. The negotiations slowed when both performers decided to shift to new management that would represent them collectively.

Bhatti detailed the specific elements causing the delay during his recent report on the situation.

There was a delay in the contract negotiations because they decided to go with a different agent, and that new agent wanted to come in and tie up loose ends. Specific things they wanted were added to their contracts, and in Becky’s case, it wasn’t about getting permission to take other opportunities without WWE necessarily getting a cut. She also wanted to be allowed to use the Becky Lynch name without WWE fully owning it. However, she wanted more flexibility when it came to approval for outside projects.

Lynch and Rollins recently signed with Adventure Media for management, giving them representation from an agency that works with top filmmakers and showrunners. This change reportedly played a significant role in their contract discussions with WWE.

Bhatti explained that the couple had specific parameters they wanted aligned in their new deals with the company.

These tiny little odds and ends are being finalized by the new agent they both wanted to use. They wanted to be with the same agent, they want their contracts to begin at the same time, and they want their contracts to be the same length. My belief is they’re going to get pretty much the same money.

Lynch has made appearances at Netflix-related events but clarified she was there supporting the company rather than as part of a WWE storyline.

Becky Lynch has not appeared on WWE television for almost a year, despite the company featuring her in promotional materials for the move to Netflix.

WWE may be planning a significant return moment for Lynch, potentially involving The Rock. These plans could include Lynch joining forces with John Cena as part of The Rock’s corporate faction, which would position her to handle the women’s division aspect of the stable.

Several indicators have emerged suggesting Lynch’s potential alignment with The Rock’s group. WWE included Lynch in The Rock’s promotional materials for Elimination Chamber, and CM Punk mentioned her name during one of his promos.

Lynch also responded to CM Punk’s Elimination Chamber attire through social media, which could be interpreted as groundwork for a heel character direction upon her return.

Similar to John Cena, Lynch has begun expanding her career into acting and other entertainment ventures outside of wrestling. An alliance with The Rock might provide additional industry connections as she continues to build her career beyond the ring.

A potential role as The Rock’s corporate champion in the women’s division would create a new dynamic for Lynch’s character while establishing a clear storyline direction for her return to WWE programming.
