Modified Mar 31, 2020 06:19 GMT

WrestleMania 36 is almost upon us, and WWE RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch is all set to defend her belt against possibly the most formidable opponent she has ever faced, Shayna Baszler. Lynch recently sat down with ESPN's Ariel Helwani and discussed a string of topics in regards to her career.

The conversation soon turned to Lynch's personal life and Ariel asked her how everything fell into place between Rollins and her. The Man responded by opening up on her very first conversation with Rollins.

We've been friends for years and years, and just immediately the first conversation that I ever had with him... we just hit it off. I think I just ended up telling him my life story. And that was it, we were just friends, and there was never really anything. But then, we were both single at the same time, and then we were like, 'Why not?'

Lynch and Rollins were spotted together on several occasions last year. The duo made the relationship official in style, soon after WrestleMania. Lynch talked about it first while being engaged in a Twitter feud with WWE Hall of Famer Beth Phoenix, while Rollins confirmed it soon after via his official Instagram handle. The couple was briefly used together on WWE TV but went their separate ways following the Extreme Rules 2019 PPV.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
