Becky Lynch shocked fans watching night 2 of WrestleMania 41 with her highly anticipated return. Lynch has been out of action for nearly a year, taking a break to focus on motherhood and ventures outside the squared circle. Last we saw of her, she lost to Rhea Ripley at Mania. Ripley suffered an injury that would force her to vacate, and an interim champion was crowned. Liv Morgan beat her for the championship and has been adamant she retired Lynch. Now she’s back for revenge.

Lynch has a history with Valkyria as well. Her short stint in NXT included rubbing elbows with her fellow Irishwoman. Lynch won the NXT Women’s Championship during her run which Valkyria won from her before returning to the main roster. “The Man” has spoken highly of Valkyria since her debut on the main roster last year, giving her the stamp of approval.
Originally, Bayley was slated to compete, however, an attack would leave her injured and Adam Pearce pulled her from the match. According to PWInsider, she’s not injured but the storyline has been in the works for weeks. Bayley has been in a feud with NXT’s Roxanne Perez.
