Becky Lynch’s WWE Royal Rumble Status Amid Prolonged Hiatus

Becky Lynch has been off WWE TV since May 27, and with the Royal Rumble fast approaching, fans are eager to know when she’ll be back. While she’s still under contract, her absence isn’t about backstage drama—it’s all about WWE’s creative direction.

Sean Ross Sapp addressed Lynch’s status on The Hump, making it clear that WWE is still mapping out her next move. “It’s a creative situation with her. She’s under contract, that’s confirmed, but it’s all from a creative aspect right now. It’s what’s been waiting on.”

Meanwhile, earlier reports suggest that Lynch’s return will be a major moment, setting up WrestleMania 41 storylines. WWE isn’t just throwing her back on TV for the sake of it—they’re waiting for the right time to make an impact.

Lynch already re-signed with WWE earlier this month, but that didn’t mean she was coming back right away. She’s been spotted at some Netflix-related events, but insiders say she was just supporting the company, not setting up a WWE angle. Both WWE and Lynch are in a good place, but it’s all about when the creative team decides to pull the trigger.

With the Royal Rumble happening on February 1, a surprise return could be on the table, but there’s no confirmation yet. If she doesn’t show up in the Rumble, fans might have to wait for Raw or SmackDown to see her back in action.

Should WWE pull the trigger at the Royal Rumble, or would it be smarter to save Lynch’s return for an even bigger moment? Drop your thoughts in the comments!
