Becky Lynch Reveals She Was Ready To Return Long Before SummerSlam 2021
Becky Lynch was ready well before WWE asked her to come back.
In 2020, Becky Lynch would leave WWE for over a year to have her baby. Upon returning to the company at SummerSlam 2021, Lynch would shockingly defeat Bianca Belair in seconds to win the SmackDown Women’s Championship on her return.
Becky spoke to Rachel DeMita of ESPN about how WWE have helped her adjust to being a full time mom as well as being one of the biggest stars in pro wrestling. Becky would reveal in her answer that she had been ready to go before WWE called her.
“I felt no pressure to comeback before I was ready. I was ready a lot longer than they asked me to come back. They’re very understanding when I need extra things, whether it be a room at a particular building for my baby. We have the privilege of having a bus, which helps an awful lot and makes her sleep a lot better with the rumbling. For me, I feel very supported and very privileged that I’m in the position that I am that I can balance the two quite handily. Traveling every week with a toddler can get a bit tough, she’s great.”
