WWE: Becky Lynch Announces Pregnancy, Relinquishes RAW Women's Title; Asuka Becomes NEW Champion

Becky Lynch revealed that she's pregnant and will be stepping away from the ring for quite some time.

New Delhi: WWE RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch, who created history by main-eventing Wrestlemania 35 last year, announced her pregnancy on Monday night RAW May 12. The ‘Man’ revealed that she requested WWE to make the Women’s Money in the Bank 2020 match for her championship. Interestingly, the ladder match was for the RAW Women’s championship instead of the contract for a title opportunity. The Royal Rumble 2019 winner is stepping away from the ring for a while. Becky Lynch left a heartfelt post for the WWE universe and her fans on social media. She wrote, ‘’ I have no idea what happens from here, but I do know that you’ve made all my dreams come true. I entered the PC in 2013 not knowing anyone, I'll leave that same building tonight with my new family. Thank you all so much.’’

Becky and her boyfriend and WWE superstar Seth Rollins are quite excited to welcome a little bundle of joy into their lives. Becky is due for delivery in December 2020. "I don't know what the next chapter is because I only know what it's like to think for myself when I'm by myself," Lynch told People Magazine.

Becky Lynch, who is a multiple-time women's champion, is one of the most popular female wrestlers in WWE. She faced Charlotte and Ronda Rousey in a triple threat winner takes all match for the RAW and Smackdown Women's titles at Wrestlemania 36. The 'Irish Lass Kicker' last defended her title at Wrestlemania 36 against Shayna Bazler. Watch this space for more updates!
