Former WWE Women's Champion Becky Lynch has been out of action for a while now and is expecting a baby by the end of the year. WWE Chairman Vince McMahon, however, wants to book a blockbuster match at WrestleMania, which would see Lynch take on her arch-rival, Ronda Rousey.
Ronda Rousey lost the RAW Women's title to Lynch in the main event of WrestleMania 35 last year, which also involved Charlotte Flair. Becky Lynch had become a major star in WWE by that time and went on to carry the belt on her shoulder for over a year.

Lynch vacated her belt after Money in the Bank 2020 and took a hiatus due to her pregnancy. Rousey had left immediately after WrestleMania 35, to start a family with Travis Browne. Vince McMahon wants these two to go at it at The Grandest Stage Of Them All next year, in one of the most anticipated matches in recent history. Lynch and Rousey have never faced off in a singles encounter, but we might finally get to see this bout at WrestleMania if McMahon's plans come to fruition.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
