Becky Lynch's WWE return could align with RAW's Netflix debut

Becky Lynch’s appearance at WWE’s media event at Netflix headquarters has sparked speculation about her potential return. The nine-time champion joined Triple H, CM Punk, Seth Rollins, and Cody Rhodes at the December 3 gathering, fueling rumors of a comeback on RAW’s Netflix premiere on January 6, 2025.

Lynch has remained absent from WWE programming since her May 27, 2024, match against Liv Morgan. The bout ended controversially when Dominik Mysterio intervened, slamming a cage door on Lynch’s head to help Morgan secure victory in their Women’s World Title match.

The former champion’s contract situation has remained unclear since June 2024, with neither Lynch nor WWE addressing her status publicly. However, recent developments suggest movement toward her return, including Morgan mentioning Lynch on RAW and Lynch herself discussing unfinished business during her appearance at the 2024 Vulture Festival.

Lynch’s potential return sets stage for Royal Rumble storylines

A return on RAW’s Netflix premiere would end Lynch’s 224-day absence and potentially ignite new rivalries heading into Royal Rumble 2025. The seven-time Women’s Champion, former NXT Women’s Champion, and one-time Women’s Tag Team Champion left unfinished business following her last appearance.

While WWE has not confirmed Lynch’s status for the January 6 episode, her presence at the Netflix media event indicates ongoing involvement with the company. The timing of her appearance, combined with recent references on WWE programming, suggests preparations for her eventual return to television.
