WWE Rumor Review: Roman Reigns' opponent leaves WWE, Plans for Becky Lynch & Ronda Rousey, Conflicting Damian Priest reports

#2. WWE's Original plans for Becky Lynch vs. Ronda Rousey

Becky Lynch and Ronda Rousey have been at the forefront of the Women's Revolution and were part of the first-ever Women's WrestleMania main event in WWE history, where Lynch won both the SmackDown and RAW Women's Championships.

Rousey was absent from the promotion since the loss, and fans were clamoring for a singles match between the two. WrestlingNews.co reported in May last year that WWE had planned for the match to take place at WrestleMania 39:

"WrestleMania 38 in Dallas has been discussed but others in the company feel that it would be better to hold that match off until WrestleMania 39 in Los Angeles since that is Rousey’s hometown and having L.A. host the show would guarantee more mainstream publicity."

The Rowdy One eventually made her return after three years, winning the 2022 Women's Royal Rumble. She later decided to face Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 38, confirming the report.

Becky Lynch is currently scheduled to defend her RAW Women's Championship against WWE Hall of Famer Lita at Elimination Chamber 2022, while Ronda Rousey will team up with Naomi to battle Charlotte Flair & Sonya Deville.
