Becky Lynch Hints at When She'll Retire From WWE

By Connor Casey

Becky Lynch is gearing up for her sixth WrestleMania match this week, teaming up with Lita and Trish Stratus to take on Damage CTRL's Bayley, Dakota Kai and Iyo Sky at WrestleMania 39. "The Man" has been with WWE for the past decade and has been in the wrestling business since 2002, prompting Tommy Tiernan to ask her this past week how much longer she intends to keep working. Lynch openly admitted that retirement is on the horizon, saying, "I still have a few more years left in me... (And then there will come a time) to hang up the boots."

As one of WWE's Four Horsewomen, Lynch already has a WWE career worthy of the WWE Hall of Fame. She's held the Raw and SmackDown Women's Championships a combined six times, won the 2019 Women's Royal Rumble and holds the records for longest single reign as Raw Women's Champion (373 days) and most cumulative days with the same title (559 days). She was also the first woman to win a WrestleMania main event match that featured only women, beating Ronda Rousey and Charlotte Flair in the final bout of WrestleMania 35 back in 2019.

Since returning from a shoulder injury last year, Lynch has spent the bulk of her time on WWE TV feuding with the Damage CTRL faction. She and Lita, a WWE Hall of Famer, beat Kai and Sky for the women's tag titles back on the Feb. 27 episode of Monday Night Raw.
