WWE Extreme Rules 2021 – 5 facts/stats you need to know

#4. Becky Lynch's first title defense since returning to WWE as a mother

Becky Lynch has won many Championships throughout her WWE career, but her current SmackDown Women's Championship reign is the first title she has lifted as a mother.

Lynch took time out of WWE to start a family with fellow superstar Seth Rollins. Lynch was RAW Women's Champion at the time when she found out she was pregnant and relinquished the title to Asuka.

She has since returned and was able to capture the SmackDown Women's Championship at SummerSlam, leading to a feud with Bianca Belair. Despite Belair pushing for a rematch over the past few weeks, Lynch has been able to dodge the match until now at Extreme Rules.

When Lynch wrestles at Extreme Rules, it will be her first pre-announced match and her first title defense since returning to the company as a mother.
