Becky Lynch Looks Back On Her Break From WWE, Says She Felt Like She Was Away From Her Daughter Too Much
Lynch opens up about the break she took.
At WrestleMania 41 in April 2025, Becky Lynch made her return to WWE after being away from the ring since May 2024.
Lynch reflected on the time off while speaking with The Irish Sun. She stated that she felt she was away from her and Seth Rollins’ daughter too much, and it became a lot for her. Lynch credited WWE and Chief Content Officer Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque for being understanding.
“I took a year off when I felt like I was away from her too much and it was getting too much for me. I said, ‘Hey, look, I need a bit of time for myself’ and the company and Triple H was amazing with that. He had no problem, he understood. Seth (Rollins) is out injured right now so he’s getting all that daddy-daughter time. It kind of balances itself out because I’ve been on tour over here but she’s got dad at home looking after her and she’s got grandma out there so it’s great. We’re very lucky.”
Present day, Lynch is the current WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion. Her latest defense was on the 1/19 Monday Night Raw in Lynch’s home country of Ireland, and she received an unexpected assist. To read more on that, click here.
