Becky Lynch returned at WrestleMania 41, teaming with Lyra Valkyria, later betraying her, with the architect of the plans now revealed.
Returning at Night Two of WrestleMania 41, Lynch teamed with Valkyria, going on to win the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship from Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez.
The WWE Raw After WrestleMania saw a rematch for the titles, with the Judgment Day members reclaiming the gold.
The architect behind Lynch’s return plans has now been revealed, with the star replacing Bayley as Valkyria’s tag team partner ahead of WrestleMania 41.
According to Bryan Alvarez on Wrestling Observer Live, the idea for the return came from Becky Lynch herself.
He explained:
“This whole thing was Becky’s idea. It was all Becky’s idea. I heard about it in advance. ‘Becky wants to come back, she wants to win the title, then turn on Lyra the next night.’
“When I heard it, I was like, ‘What? This is an absolutely horrible idea.’ But as it turns out, her coming back and winning the title, if you went on Twitter after that show – they all cheered Becky and everything – but very shortly thereafter, there were all the ‘Becky Hogan’ posts.
“I didn’t know that her plan involved losing the title. I thought she was gonna turn on Lyra as champions and they’d vacate the title or whatever. But losing the title AND turning on her – this all worked out perfect for a heel turn. It didn’t for the Raw after WrestleMania, but she’ll be a heel next week.”
