WWE Snubs Becky Lynch in Favor of Rhea Ripley After Free Agent Status

Dominik Mysterio and Rhea Ripley’s blooming love story couldn’t reach its pinnacle due to Mami’s untimely injury. The former WWE Women’s Champion was fuming with rage in her drawing room, watching all the flirtatious storylines between DomDom and Morgan in recent weeks. As soon as the Judgment Day member reciprocated the union by celebrating a win in a tag team match on Raw against Rey Mysterio and Zelina Vega, Mami’s music hit. He stood helpless in front of Ripley, shamelessly trying to defend his sin.

While it looks downhill for her kayfabe romance, Ripley can take solace in the fact that she got back her lead spot on the red brand.

Becky Lynch gets swapped for the new Raw banner lead face

The WWE Universe was lacking some big names on the roster, including Seth Rollins, Rhea Ripley, CM Punk, and more. Given how it has started reshaping with Mami and Rollins back in their groove, the only way forward is up. Analyzing the recent storyline, we can see that Mami will undergo a massive character change on Raw following her groundbreaking return. PWInsider confirmed the anticipation further, noting Rhea Ripley is internally listed as a baby face while the other judgment members remain heels. Triple H has something new in store for the Eradicator, which started with the new Raw banner where Rhea Ripley replaced Becky Lynch as the center star.

While Ripley’s future looks bright, another esteemed WWE female star doesn’t share the same prospects. ‘The Man’ lost her WWE Women’s championship to Liv Morgan while she also hasn’t appeared on WWE programming in recent weeks. Does Becky Lynch’s substitution in the roster mean anything specific about her trending WWE status? Let’s dig deeper.

Becky Lynch’s current WWE status: Explained

There has been a long buzz regarding The Man’s active WWE status for a while. While the 37-year-old’s contract tenure has legitimately expired, Lynch continues to be a name in the division, with numerous mentions in the interviews and her continued listing on the active roster page. Also, despite being removed from the Raw banner, the former world champion still graces the separate WWE superstar banner. Recently, her husband Seth Rollins shed further light on his wife’s future noting that she’s doing great and spending ample quality time with their child. However, Rollins made nothing clear about her future with the Stamford-based company.
