According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, as of now, there are no plans for Becky Lynch to be part of WWE SummerSlam. He further stated that there has been news emerging from WWE TV tapings over the last week indicating that she will be returning to WWE this fall, which means October could be a likely time for her return.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
At WrestleMania 36 Night 1, Becky Lynch faced off against Shayna Baszler in a match for the WWE RAW Women's Championship. Lynch came out on top after she successfully countered the Kirifuda Clutch into a pin to keep Baszler's shoulders down for the three count.
Lynch did not compete for another month before she was scheduled to make an announcement on the RAW after WWE Money in the Bank. There, she revealed that she was pregnant, so she relinquished the WWE RAW Women's Championship. The title went to Asuka, who had won the Women's Money in the Bank match the previous night. Lynch gave birth to her daughter, Roux, in December last year.
Though she has been away from WWE for over a year, Lynch remains one of the company's most popular stars. Ever since live crowds returned to WWE shows, fans have been anticipating Lynch's return to WWE. The Man herself has even teased a possible appearance on a WWE show more than once in recent memory.
Moreover, in the past few weeks, fans have been chanting for Becky frequently, especially in segments and matches featuring Charlotte Flair, who directly addressed these chants on the episode of WWE RAW after Money in the Bank this year.
