Becky Lynch’s WWE Future Remains Uncertain as Her Name Stays on the Internal Roster

Becky Lynch officially stepped away from WWE earlier this year after her contract expired on June 1st, following her losses to Liv Morgan at King and Queen of the Ring and in a steel cage match on Raw. While it was initially believed that Lynch might eventually return to WWE, speculation has been swirling for months. However, despite being on hiatus, new information has emerged that suggests her story with WWE may not be over just yet.

During the latest episode of WrestleVotes Radio, it was revealed that Lynch’s name still appears on WWE’s weekly internal talent roster, raising questions about her current status with the company. Joey Votes offered some insight into the situation.

“We’ve confirmed that Becky Lynch, her name appears on the roster. Still to this day, her name appears on the weekly roster that comes out with the television script each Monday and Friday… She’s still considered part of the team, so to speak, and we’ll see where this goes.”

The persistence of Lynch’s name on the roster has led to speculation that her departure from WWE may not have been as definitive as once believed. WrestleVotes elaborated further, suggesting that there could be more to the story than just a contract expiration.

“It’s a very intriguing thing, because I had heard about this months ago when she took her hiatus. Her name never really came off the roster… So it was one of those things where, okay, did they forget to take it off the internal roster? Is it there for moral support because they want to see Becky Lynch in the future?”

WrestleVotes continued, discussing WWE’s typically strict protocol for handling roster changes: “It’s not lost on me how buttoned-up WWE is about all these sorts of things… For the fact that Becky Lynch has been on that roster sheet for as long as she has, tells me that she’s in the fold and in the mix moving forward.”

The idea that WWE would keep Lynch on the roster without a clear reason has led to theories that her hiatus may have been strategically planned to create anticipation for a major return. WrestleVotes hinted at this possibility, noting:

“Did she ever truly become a free agent? Did she ever, you know, have her contract lapse? Was there time added? Was there a deal done before she took her hiatus? Like, ‘Hey, let’s get this deal done. You go take your hiatus. We’ll make it feel like you’re a free agent, and then when the time’s right, we’ll have you come back and surprise the world.’”

As Lynch remains a beloved figure in WWE, fans are eager to see what her next move might be. While her hiatus continues, it seems WWE may have plans for “The Man” to make a grand return when the time is right.
