#3 Becky Lynch vs. Ronda Rousey plans in WWE

youtube-cover

Becky Lynch and Ronda Rousey are arguably the biggest names in the WWE Women's division today. However, both women have been absent from the company owing to pregnancies. While there were rumors about plans for the two women to face each other at WrestleMania 38, WrestlingNews.co has reported that the match may be pushed back till WrestleMania 39 instead.

"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."

There is no word yet on when either of the two women will return to WWE. Rousey has been absent from WWE since WrestleMania 35, where she lost the RAW Women's Championship to Becky Lynch in the main event of the show.

The first-ever women's main event match at WrestleMania was a "Winner Takes All" triple threat bout between Rousey, Lynch, and Charlotte Flair. Despite the two women having already squared off at WrestleMania, they have not done so in a one-on-one match.
