Becky Lynch Congratulates Sasha Banks And Bianca Belair For Making History At WrestleMania 37
Nothing but respect from The Man.
Earlier in the week, Becky Lynch shared a workout photo on Instagram with an acrostic caption that spelt out “Night One.” It has been 11 months since she announced her pregnancy and relinquished the RAW Women’s Championship to Asuka. Now four months postpartum, fans have been speculating that perhaps a return to the ring is nearing.
Lynch did not appear at WrestleMania on Saturday but did send out a Tweet after the show, poking fun at the stir she caused while also congratulating Sasha Banks and Bianca Belair for their history-making main event.

Belair defeated Banks in the main event, capturing the SmackDown Women’s Championship. The significance of the match stretches far beyond that, however, as they are the first Black women to headline WWE’s Showcase of the Immortals.
The only other Women’s Match to close the show at WrestleMania came two years ago, when Lynch defeated Ronda Rousey and Charlotte Flair to win both the Raw and SmackDown Women’s Championships.
This marks Belair’s first reign as SmackDown Women’s Champion. Banks won the title on October 25, 2020, at WWE Hell in a Cell by defeating Bayley inside the unforgiving structure.
