During her appearance on Ryan Satin's 'Out of Character,' Becky Lynch opened up about the possibility of squaring up with Ronda Rousey in a future singles match.

Rousey recently gave birth to a baby girl, and several fans are hoping the former RAW Women's Champion will begin working towards a professional wrestling return similar to Becky Lynch.

Becky Lynch said she saw herself battling Rousey somewhere down the line. The Irish star isn't bothered by the timeline of Rousey's return as she promised to beat the former UFC Champion whenever she is ready.

"Yeah, and I do think it will. The fact that I've had a baby and came back so great that she'll probably want to one-up me. She'll try to come back in three months; then I'll be right there to punch her right in the face, give her a Rock Bottom, out of here in 20 seconds, Ronda. So long, good night," said Lynch.

Becky Lynch vs. Ronda Rousey is one of the biggest feuds yet to be explored by the WWE. Could WrestleMania 38 be the ideal stage for the match?
