Becky Lynch makes massive personal announcement after RAW goes off-air

WWE Superstar Becky Lynch made a big announcement after RAW went off the air tonight.

On RAW, The Man defeated Nia Jax in a Last Woman Standing match. After the bout, Women's World Champion Rhea Ripley came out and had an intense face-off with Lynch.

After the show went off the air, Becky Lynch made a personal announcement and revealed that she became an American citizen earlier today. For those unaware, The Man is an Irish citizen by birth. However, she has lived in the US for over a decade, thanks to WWE.

Despite that, due to the lengthy procedure, it was only now that she was able to become an American citizen. It should be noted that she has been married to Seth Rollins, who is an American citizen by birth, since June 2021.

Becky Lynch has been eyeing the Women's World Championship for quite some time now. She earned the opportunity to face Rhea Ripley for the belt after winning the Women's Elimination Chamber match at the namesake event in Perth.

Lynch is hell-bent on defeating Ripley for the belt at WrestleMania XL. She has already done it all in the business but has never beaten The Nightmare in singles competition.

As for Mami, she recently headlined Elimination Chamber: Perth and retained her Women's World Title against Nia Jax. She is possibly the strongest female star in WWE today and has been unstoppable for almost a year since winning the belt at WrestleMania 39.

Lynch vs Ripley is bound to be an instant classic at 'Mania.

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.
