WWE WrestleMania 41 featured the shocking return of Becky Lynch, who stepped in as Lyra Valkyria’s mystery opponent and captured the WWE Tag Team Championship on her first night back.
Lynch, in a return that was widely expected after Bayley was “injured” last week, became a tag team champion once again in a memorable moment for “The Man” and for Valkyria, the Intercontinental Champion who can now call herself a double champion.
Nearly a year ago, Liv Morgan though she retired “The Man” from pro wrestling for good. Little did she know that Lynch would show up in Las Vegas nearly one year later to seek her revenge. And revenge is what she got, blasting Morgan with a Manhandle Slam to pick up the victory and secure the tag team title win.
WWE fans have been wondering about Lynch’s whereabouts for much of the past year, but now, they know exactly what’s going on.

Of course, Lynch has popped up here and there, even appearing at this year’s Hall of Fame ceremony. But there were more questions than answers about when, and how, the future Hall of Famer would return.
Back in January, it was reported that Lynch had signed a new contract with WWE and would be returning to the company after a brief hiatus. But just a month later, Lynch suggested that she was unsure when she would return. Maybe she was just playing coy, or perhaps she genuinely didn’t know.
