Becky Lynch has made a shocking announcement on WWE Unreal.

The Man joined the Stamford-based company in 2013. She has since become one of the biggest stars in the promotion, winning seven world championships.

In 2024, the 38-year-old left WWE after her contract expired following an agreement with Chief Content Officer Triple H to take a break. After several months of absence, Lynch returned at last year’s WrestleMania for another run with the company.

Becky Lynch Will Leave WWE After Her Current Contract

Upon her return last year, Becky Lynch signed a new contract with WWE. During the first episode of WWE Unreal Season 2 on Netflix, The Man opened up on how her career has affected her relationship with her daughter, admitting that she felt guilty for leaving Roux for a long time.

The current Women’s Intercontinental Champion then dropped a bombshell announcement, revealing that her current WWE contract would be her final one.

There’s also that hard part of, ‘Now, Mum’s got to go to work. That guilt is always hard. Like, I had this little kid that I had then been leaving. I felt like when I’d come back, she was angry at me. Like, I didn’t… I hadn’t had enough time with her. The time off, it was maybe gonna be forever. I don’t think I knew. I was kind of so content. This is probably it. This is the final run. This is the final contract. So, I suppose it’s a matter of knowing that, understanding that, and enjoying that the best… the best I can. [H/T: Netflix]
