Shayna Baszler challenged Becky Lynch for the RAW Women’s Title at WrestleMania 36. However, she was unable to beat Lynch for the title.


Becky Lynch spoke to the Bella Twins’ podcast, where she talked about when she and Seth Rollins started to try having a baby. She also revealed that she pitched the idea of dropping her title to Shayna Baszler at WrestleMania 36.

 

“Originally I was like, ok, well … I’ll wait til I’m done wrestling and then I’ll have a family. But then I started thinking, but wait, why do I have to do that? Guys don’t have to do that. Hell, I’ll just do it whenever the time feels right! So we started trying, and I just thought it would take a long time. And it didn’t. We were super lucky.”

“It happened before I would’ve expected and I was still the champ at the time. I actually thought that I was going to lose the title at WrestleMania, which I also pitched … but you know, plans change!”

Shayna Baszler was also going to win the Royal Rumble according to reports, but Charlotte Flair ended up being the winner. There were also plans for her to win the Money In The Bank match, but Asuka ended up being the victor.

Reports suggest that Vince McMahon lost interest in Baszler. We will have to see what WWE will plan next.
