Taking it to X, Lynch expressed her happiness about being included on the list with some of WWE’s greats. She noted that she is enjoying the company of several WWE legends.

Although Big Time Becks has been absent from WWE TV lately, she continues to make waves globally. She is also set to attend the ‘Vulture Fest’ this year, where she might address her WWE future. Additionally, several reports suggest that Lynch has already signed a new deal with WWE, indicating she could make her return to the company anytime soon.

Nonetheless, rumors suggest that the 37-year-old will play an integral role in the women’s division when Raw moves to Netflix. Hence, this indicates that fans may see her return before 2025. In fact, there is a possibility she could even compete at Survivor Series: WarGames next month.

Vince Russo believes Vince McMahon derailed Becky Lynch’s career after she had a baby

Becky Lynch has been one of the greatest women’s wrestlers of all time. She has had an illustrious career in WWE. However, Vince Russo has some different take on the career of The Man. The former booker claims that Vince McMahon derailed her career after her comments on the Broken Skull Sessions with Steve Austin a few years ago.

Speaking on the Backstage Pass, Russo detailed that when Lynch had a baby, she admitted on Stone Cold’s podcast that wrestling was not her top priority anymore in January 2022. The former WWE writer claimed that this comment might have angered McMahon, who booked her poorly thereafter.

That’s career suicide. And I’m telling you, the way she got booked from that moment on, you could tell that wrestling was clearly not the most important thing to her anymore. And Vince wasn’t gonna have it. And that’s why she went home.

Russo heavily criticized Lynch’s comment, even calling it “career suicide.” However, even after such comments, Becky Lynch managed to stay in the spotlight, securing the Women’s Championship multiple times after her delivery.
