Becky Lynch was recently seen in the ring before Raw XXX with her daughter, Roux Lopez. Seth Rollins, father of Roux was no where to be found in the photo, but surely, he was close by. Could this be the next generation warming up in the ring with her mother? Take a look at the photo below.
Ever since WWE started marketing Becky Lynch as “The Man” during her rise to the main event scene back in 2019, Ric Flair has made it clear he wasn’t happy about it.
Ric never came up with just “The Man,” but he is infamous for saying “To be The Man, you’ve got to beat The Man.” He filed a trademark on it when WWE started producing merchandise for Lynch with the nickname, and tensions have been high between The Nature Boy and Lynch (and her husband Seth Rollins, and often their employers at WWE) ever since.
It got ugly enough that during Becky’s last big feud with Charlotte Flair, Ric was publicly advocating for Charlotte to shoot on Lynch, and Becky was saying that Naitch’s behavior was “kind of sad”.
With all of the drama, Ric Flair decided that Raw XXX was the time and place to bury the hatchet.
He broke down what he said was a cathartic visit to Philadelphia on the latest episode of his To Be The Man podcast: “It was phenomenal. I gotta tell you, I learned more about myself and more about what I’ve missed in the business and what I hadn’t missed in one day because I haven’t been here for a long time. I felt like I was respected. I felt like I was wanted.”
He then went into apologizing to Becky as he said: “It started out with me and Hunter talking for about an hour, which is a private discussion, but resolving a lot of issues that have been lingering for a couple years, and then I apologized to Becky Lynch. I walked up to her and said, ‘May I speak with you for a minute’, and I said, ‘I’m sorry that this got to where it is.’ I went over and shook Seth Rollins hand and I said, ‘I’m going to apologize to your wife.’
Ric then stated that he is no longer “The Man.”
