Raw Women's Champion Becky Lynch had something to say regarding the speculation of Ronda Rousey's WWE return.
As previously noted, WWE is reportedly looking to bring back Rousey, and many are naturally speculating that she'll return at this Saturday's Royal Rumble pay-per-view. The event will once again be highlighted by the 30-woman and 30-man Royal Rumble matches, with the winners guaranteeing themselves championship matches for WrestleMania 38 weekend.
On Tuesday, Lynch took to Twitter and responded to a report that WWE is trying to bring back her former rival:
Lynch, Rousey and Charlotte Flair met in the main event of WrestleMania 35 three years ago, with the winner taking home both the Raw and SmackDown Women's Championship belts. Lynch, who won the Royal Rumble match that year, claimed both titles after pinning Rousey (in controversial fashion).
To date, WrestleMania 35 marks Rousey's most recent WWE appearance. Two years ago, Rousey admitted that she "definitely" wanted to go back, though she couldn't give a timeline on when.
Following numerous rumors and reports about a potential arrival in WWE, Rousey confirmed that she had signed with the company by making a surprise appearance at the end of the 2018 Royal Rumble pay-per-view. Just over two months later, Rousey would make her in-ring debut at WrestleMania 34, with her and Hall of Famer Kurt Angle defeating Stephanie McMahon and Triple H in a tag team match.
Dave Meltzer recently reported that WWE may be planning a feud between Rousey and Lynch for WrestleMania 38, which will be held on Apr. 2-3 weekend at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
