Becky Lynch Announces Pregnancy, Vacates WWE Raw Women’s Championship
“The Man” is going to be a mom!
WWE Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch vacated her title on Monday Night Raw but for good reason: She’s pregnant!
Lynch handed over the title to the Women’s Money in the Bank winner Asuka and then made the announcement, which can be viewed in the video below.
In an exclusive interview with People, Lynch said, “I’ve always, always wanted kids. I’m just so career-focused that it became one of those things that, when you’re chasing a dream for so long, I always wondered, ‘Am I going to get around to it? Is it going to happen for me?'”
Lynch has been engaged to fellow WWE Superstar Seth Rollins since August 2019. This both their first child.
Lynch added, “When we got together, things started to look a lot clearer and I knew he was the person that I wanted to have kids with — that this was going to happen and it was just a matter of when. Seth is one of the smartest people I know. He’s just got an insane work ethic, insane integrity and he is the most generous, kindhearted person. He’s very, very focused on what the right thing to do is and always looking to grow and correct himself and be better so he can be the best person for me, and now, the best father.”
Congrats to the parents-to-be!
"You go and be a warrior, 'cause I'm gonna go be a mother."
