Despite the fact that she does not have a contract, Becky Lynch is still listed on the WWE roster.
The former Women’s Champion has not been seen since late May as she let her WWE contract expire. Having not made any wrestling appearances since and conducting limited interviews, Lynch has been away from the spotlight and more focused on family life. Despite this, Lynch is still listed on the company’s roster page while other former stars who left after her such as Bobby Lashley and Ricochet have been moved to the alumni section. According to a new report, Lynch’s name is still featured on the list.
As reported by WrestleVotes via Sportskeeda’s Backstage Pass, Lynch still appears on the weekly roster to this day and is still considered a part of the company despite the fact that she has not re-signed. It is also noted that in regards to a new contract for Lynch, this still remains up in the air:
“We’ve confirmed that Becky Lynch, her name appears on the roster. Still to this day, her name appears on the weekly roster that comes out with the television script each Monday and Friday. Does that mean she has signed a new deal? Officially, we can’t say that, but what we can say is that she’s still in the mix. She’s still considered part of the team, so to speak, and we’ll see where this goes. But we do know that her name is still part of the company.”
“It’s a very intriguing thing, because I had heard about this months ago that when she took her hiatus as Triple H has called it on hiatus, her name never really came off the roster. So it was one of the things where, okay, well, did they take it? Did they forget to take it off the internal roster? Is it there for moral support because they want to see Becky Lynch in the future? But as time went on and Becky Lynch’s name remains on the internal roster that the team gets each and every show, it was something I was checking in on and heard, yeah, it looks like she’s still there. It looks like her name’s still there. So did she ever truly become a free agent? Is my first question. Did she ever, you know, have her contract lapse? Was there time added Was there a deal done before she took her hiatus? Like, ‘Hey, let’s get this deal done. You go take your hiatus. We’ll make it feel like you’re a free agent, and then when the time’s right, we’ll have you come back and surprise the world.’ I think that might be the case, but the fact that it remained on the roster is very, very telling to me, and very intriguing. If it’s just an oversight, I can’t believe it is of how buttoned up WWE is about all these sort of things. You see when guys get injured right away. I know there was one. Kiana James was taken off the roster, which is reported by numerous outlets, for whatever injury she was going through. So when those things happen, they’re on top of it. So for the fact that Becky Lynch has been on that roster sheet for as long as she has, tells me that she’s in the fold and in the mix moving here.”
