‘The Man’ Becky Lynch suffered a separated shoulder in her Raw Women’s Championship match against Bianca Belair at this year’s Summer Slam premium live event. Despite her injury in earlier of the match, Lynch was able to gut it out and complete the matchup with Belair before being written off on Monday Night Raw two days later.
According to Sean Ross Sapp (via Fightful Select), those within WWE creative are hopeful that the former Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch will be back on Monday Night Raw by the end of this year. But that is reportedly far from a guarantee right now.
Previously, various outlets reported that Becky Lynch was ahead of schedule when it came to her injury and would be returning to the ring soon. However, people within WWE told Sapp that they were yet to follow up with Lynch on her current injury and that she was never slated for a September return.
Becky Lynch was luckily able to avoid surgery, which would have likely delayed her return to some point in 2023. Instead of surgery, the former Women’s Champion Becky Lynch is going through a few months of physical therapy to prepare her for her WWE in-ring return.
