Becky Lynch hasn't been seen on WWE TV since May, when she announced that she was expecting her first child and was then granted maternity leave. The former RAW Women's Champion had become one of the biggest stars in the company in the years leading up to the announcement, which was quite the turn around for her career.

Lynch was one of the company's more forgettable stars until she repackaged herself and became The Man. She went on to be the only woman who could stand toe-to-toe with Ronda Rousey.

Lynch revealed that she was almost fired on several occasions when coming through NXT. Lynch shared quite an inspirational update on her Twitter account back in May 2019, where she confirmed that there was a time when the company had almost let her go.

The Man revealed that she has been fighting to keep her job since day one and was able to find a way to become the best-known female wrestler in the world at the peak of her most recent WWE main roster run.
