Becky Lynch contract update
Added 2024-05-27 21:50:48 +0000 UTCBecky Lynch is set for a world title cage match on WWE Raw tonight, but by this weekend could be wrapped up in WWE.
Lynch is set for a world title rematch on tonight's WWE Raw in the main event against Liv Morgan. As of this morning, Becky Lynch and WWE had not reached terms on a new contract, though the two sides had been in contact. We have not learned if a deal is imminent, or agreed upon, outside of that there hasn't been a new deal reached. We have also not learned on if it has any bearing on tonight's match.
Lynch's current WWE contract is set to expire on June 1, at which time she'll become a free agent unless a deal is reached before then. Lynch is expected by many in the industry to get the biggest offer of any woman in pro wrestling history.
We'll continue to keep you updated, WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT!!

Drew confirmed at wembley too, AWE!

2024-05-28 22:21:56 +0000 UTCShe wouldn’t be wrestling any less in AEW than in WWE is the thing. WWE is now one show a week most weeks.
WR
2024-05-28 21:02:32 +0000 UTC70% sure she’ll be at Wembley
Stephen Bradley
2024-05-28 15:20:58 +0000 UTCWade Keller reported that Becky said goodbyes backstage and that she is going on a "hiatus", and won't be signing with AEW "imminently".

2024-05-28 11:54:45 +0000 UTCWWE sources told PWInsider that they believe they will come to terms with Lynch on a new agreement, but a few years ago, they thought they had Kenny Omega and the Young Bucks signed...

2024-05-28 10:42:42 +0000 UTCIt’s actually not uncommon for the AEW schedule to be harder than the WWE one now, as a lot of the roster do both dynamite and collision every week while WWE has gotten rid of a lot of the house shows.
WR
2024-05-28 04:27:02 +0000 UTCI don't think she's leaving WWE, but the husband angle in this honestly isn't much of a factor. She goes somewhere else, she'd be working one-two max days a week. That leaves plenty of time for family. Lot of people in this world don't work with their spouse.

2024-05-28 02:26:59 +0000 UTCIf I had not read her book I would automatically assume she was re-signing. But I have, which makes either stepping away to spend more time with the kid or signing elsewhere a lot more likely than you'd think.
Tempo1337
2024-05-28 01:25:06 +0000 UTCI agree that it would be a shock if she doesn’t resign with WWE. To play devils advocate though… IF she can make similar money on a lighter schedule working for a rival company, why wouldn’t she consider it and get more home time with her daughter?
Sam Stone
2024-05-28 01:11:18 +0000 UTCNot just for Becky but for everyone close to free agency, idk why you wouldn’t let the deal expire to see what the other side is offering. This isn’t like the NBA where your current team can offer more money on a max deal.
John Lopes
2024-05-28 00:42:58 +0000 UTCWe don't know what her next move is and i'm not going to speculate. Whatever she decides to do i will support her. She is one of my top 5 female wrestlers of all time. she is great and wish her luck with whatever she dose
Kamonte Jackson
2024-05-28 00:25:04 +0000 UTCMakes sense to always have one parent home, especially with the daughters school days starting soon.
Francis
2024-05-28 00:21:26 +0000 UTC😂😂😂
Ky W
2024-05-27 23:58:32 +0000 UTCShe probably has resign, but WWE (in this new ERA) is about keeping secret and close to the vest. So I highly doubt their going to let it leak that she's resigned already, and are just waiting for June 1st (or before/after) to announce she's staying.
Brian Walmer
2024-05-27 23:54:32 +0000 UTCShe's probably waiting till she's a free agent so she can get an offer from AEW and use it as leverage to re-sign with WWE for more money.
Vain Valor
2024-05-27 23:52:00 +0000 UTCWith the frequency they book their women, it may be once a month!
Trevor D.
2024-05-27 23:40:52 +0000 UTCYes cause if she wrestles once or twice a week in Aew she'll never see her family.
Charles Lee Ray
2024-05-27 23:31:27 +0000 UTCAlthough I'd be surprised if Becky didn't resign, I won't insult other people by calling them delusional, etc if they think otherwise. None of us myself included know what she's doing or why. It's sad people can't discuss it without name calling.
dead inside failure
2024-05-27 23:27:41 +0000 UTCFind it incredibly hard to believe she’ll leave WWE, but if she does then that would be huge.
Jeffrey Hawks
2024-05-27 23:19:29 +0000 UTCExactly. I highly doubt she ends up somewhere else.
Laquita Momon
2024-05-27 23:17:16 +0000 UTCWith Seth signing a new deal with WWE recently and them having a child together, I think the chances of her signing anywhere else is astronomically low.
DTM007
2024-05-27 23:09:03 +0000 UTCWhy would she leave when her husband just re-signed? People thinking she’s going anywhere else are delusional. No, she’s not winning tonight, but there’s no way the WWE lets her go anywhere else.
John Horton
2024-05-27 23:03:22 +0000 UTCShe’s better than Mercedes so yes.

2024-05-27 22:56:42 +0000 UTCUPDATE ME. DO IT I DARE YOU. I DOUBLE DOG DARE YA

2024-05-27 22:49:29 +0000 UTCLol at the end of this post 🤣
slick
2024-05-27 22:34:51 +0000 UTCWhat she does fits in wwe way better she is going to stay. I do not see her leaving
Girth brooks
2024-05-27 22:33:26 +0000 UTCY’all say that about everybody and then should they go to aew, suddenly they are golden.
NicksKicks
2024-05-27 22:29:10 +0000 UTCI’m sure she’s just going to take some time off but I would be shocked if she goes elsewhere.
thaddperkins
2024-05-27 22:28:32 +0000 UTCWith the contract about to expire, it would make sense for her to dip her toes in the free agency water and see just what AEW is willing to offer. Especially at a time when the AEW women's division seems to finally be gaining some traction. I think she does re-sign, but not before sees what is out there.
Lynchman
2024-05-27 22:27:39 +0000 UTCThat is both completely wrong & a really stupid comment. She is objectively an all-time great women's wrestler.
Desmond McDade
2024-05-27 22:25:10 +0000 UTCLike the other wolf of wrestling, she's not f*cking going. Kidding aside, I would be more surprised if she doesn't re-sign.
Sheila Antonio
2024-05-27 22:22:57 +0000 UTCLmaoo. She can’t wrestle. Yall just give her a pass cause she works for wwe
Girth brooks
2024-05-27 22:21:55 +0000 UTCI don’t see her leaving WWE especially after Seth signed a new long term deal & she’s made it clear in multiple interviews if she doesn’t plan on leaving. I could see Becky Lynch doing what Johnny Gargano did back in 2021 when his deal was expiring choose not to sign a new deal to spend time with your kid & then return to company later in the year
Matt Hennessy
2024-05-27 22:20:11 +0000 UTCI agree, she’s so much better than that.
NicksKicks
2024-05-27 22:20:04 +0000 UTCI’m sure Tony Khan will be keen to make an offer. Even if she isn’t really interested in leaving WWE maybe she’d be tempted by a few guest spots to come in and work Forbidden Door/Wembley against any talent of her choice?
David C
2024-05-27 22:17:41 +0000 UTCGreat report! Any update on AEW is interested of signing Becky Lynch?
John Cena
2024-05-27 22:17:33 +0000 UTCShe’ll get exposed
Girth brooks
2024-05-27 22:16:28 +0000 UTCI hope she just takes some time off before re-signing & hopefully returning later this year. I'm not a fan of AEW so I have no interest in seeing her go there, I hope she stays with WWE.
Desmond McDade
2024-05-27 22:15:28 +0000 UTCShould they be so lucky
Joe
2024-05-27 22:12:51 +0000 UTCI feel like she’s taking time off for some other career things or even getting her kid ready for school. She’s not someone who does “breaks” (her words) so I think she’ll re-sign once other things are in order. Hopefully back by Summerslam for my sake lol
NicksKicks
2024-05-27 22:11:50 +0000 UTCPlease. Stay away from AEW.
Girth brooks
2024-05-27 22:11:17 +0000 UTCIf Becky isn’t worth it, then no one is.
NicksKicks
2024-05-27 22:09:20 +0000 UTCI can’t see her going to AEW so either re-sign or taking some serious time off.
Nick O’Shea
2024-05-27 22:08:47 +0000 UTCI think she signs with WWE for a lot of money and on a favourable schedule that allows her to be with her daughter more often, but I can't rule out her going to AEW completely. They have lots of money, don't run house shows, and she'd only need to work a day a week, not necessarily every week. I'd only see it happen if WWE aren't willing to give her the terms she wants and AEW does.
MB
2024-05-27 22:07:08 +0000 UTCBecky is good. But she's not worth the biggest women's contract anymore.
Patrick Shaw
2024-05-27 22:04:27 +0000 UTCI don’t think so
Astrid Pizarro
2024-05-27 22:04:00 +0000 UTCTears of joy when she appears in AEW
Raymond Slover
2024-05-27 22:03:38 +0000 UTCSo she gonna lose
Shawn Garner
2024-05-27 22:03:30 +0000 UTCYeah I would be shocked.
James Kruse
2024-05-27 22:03:28 +0000 UTCShe's going to MLW!
James Kruse
2024-05-27 22:02:49 +0000 UTCCriminal if she misses clash again but if she makes an All In appearance same difference
Joe
2024-05-27 22:02:41 +0000 UTCDefinitely keep us updated. I still think she let's her contract expire, waits for AEWs offer then takes it to WWE and then re-signs with them.

2024-05-27 22:01:03 +0000 UTCF**k!
Isaac Gudin
2024-05-27 22:00:53 +0000 UTCIt would be AEW or WWE. She’s not gonna go to Japan full time with Seth still in WWE

Kyle Pribila
2024-05-27 21:56:14 +0000 UTCBecky Lynch - probably will become a free agent but will keep her options open with WWE, AEW, NJPW
