Becky Lynch has been one of the greatest female superstars in the history of professional wrestling, and her success in WWE proves it. Fondly called The Man, Lynch has been able to conquer everything in the Stamford-based promotion, and there’s no doubt that she’s a future Hall of Famer in the organization.
While her career in the WWE has already put her in the category of legends, Becky‘s future with the company looks pretty faded. Lynch’s contract with the biggest wrestling promotion in the world officially ended on June 1, and the 37-year-old in-ring star is now officially a free agent.
While it’s surprising that she hasn’t already signed a new contract with the promotion, even more interesting speculation has been making the rounds on the internet.
Amid the uncertainty surrounding Becky Lynch’s run with the Stamford-based promotion, some believe that she might be joining All Elite Wrestling. So, let’s take a look at three reasons why Becky Lynch might not be happy with WWE and move to AEW.
3. Becky Lynch might receive a historic offer from AEW
WWE and Becky not renewing the contract was obviously surprising, and there might be a number of reasons behind it. But a major factor behind it could be the money. As the 5-foot-6 has been a top name in the industry for a long time, she might be expecting a hefty contract of money, and that’s exactly what AEW is known for.
The Tony Khan-led promotion recently grabbed Kazuchika Okada with a huge contract, they might do the same with Lynch. In fact, there have been rumors that Becky Lynch might receive a historic offer, which could be the biggest ever in the history of women’s wrestling. If that’s the reality, it would be a good enough reason for her to make an official shift to the Jacksonville-based promotion.
2. AEW’s schedule may force Becky Lynch to leave WWE for AEW
While the money could be a factor, another thing that might end up being the reason for Becky Lynch’s move to AEW is the schedule. Everyone knows that the WWE schedule is not an easy one to handle, and many pro wrestlers keep themselves away from the Triple H-led promotion due to this reason.
Lynch isn’t getting any younger, and she might decide to focus on her family and health and that’s where All Elite Wrestling’s scheduling comes into play. If the 37-year-old female star decides to dedicate more of her time to her personal life, she might end up leaving the Triple H-led promotion and signing a new contract with the Tony Khan’s company.
1. Sasha Banks’ AEW association might attract Becky Lynch towards AEW
Alongside the above-discussed reasons, Sasha Banks‘ AEW association might also attract Becky Lynch to AEW. The Boss joined the Jacksonville-based promotion not too long ago, and she has already booked her spot at the top of the women’s division in the company. This might work as an attraction for Lynch.
In addition to this, Sasha could even have a discussion with Becky about signing with the Tony Khan-led promotion, and their history in the WWE may force Lynch to agree. If that ends up being the case, there’s a possibility that All Elite Wrestling might even use this as an angle on TV, and we might even see them working as a team.
Whether this ends up happening or not is a thing for the future, but it’s important to remember that if Becky ends up joining All Elite Wrestling, it is arguably going to be the biggest signing in AEW’s history. But it all depends on the discussion hbetween WWE and Becky Lynch, and it remains to be seen what’s next for the veteran female professional wrestler.
