Becky Lynch is an Irish professional wrestler best known for making history at WrestleMania 35 in 2019, where she became WWE’s first simultaneous Raw and SmackDown Women's Champion.
Born as Rebecca Quinn on January 30, 1987, in Dublin, Ireland, Becky Lynch developed an early passion for sports including horse riding, swimming, basketball, and polo. Her wrestling journey began in 2002, when she started training under Fergal Devitt (better known as Finn Bálor) and Paul Tracey at a new wrestling school in Ireland. Alongside her brother, who wrestled under the ring name Gonzo de Mondo, she trained intensely. Within five months, she began competing in matches under the ring name Rebecca Knox.
In April 2013, Becky signed a developmental contract with WWE and was assigned to the NXT brand in Florida. She debuted on television in June 2014, defeating Summer Rae on an episode of NXT. Over the following years, Becky built a strong presence, facing off against top competitors and gaining a dedicated fan base.
Her career reached new heights in 2019 at WrestleMania 35 when she defeated Ronda Rousey and Charlotte Flair in a triple threat match, making her the first woman in WWE history to simultaneously hold both the Raw and SmackDown Women's Championships. This victory solidified her place as a top figure in professional wrestling and earned her the nickname "The Man."
Becky Lynch was previously in a relationship with MMA fighter Luke Sanders, who competes in the UFC’s Bantamweight division. The couple began dating in February 2016 but confirmed their separation in April 2018. No public reason was given for the breakup.
Following that relationship, Becky was briefly linked to comedian Jeff Dye, a known wrestling enthusiast. Although he posted pictures indicating their closeness, the relationship was brief and ended without public explanation.
Becky is currently married to fellow WWE superstar Seth Rollins (real name Colby Lopez). The couple confirmed their relationship in 2019 through a series of posts on social media. They made a public appearance together at WWE’s Stomping Grounds pay-per-view in June 2019, sharing their relationship status with fans. The couple announced their engagement later that year and have since welcomed a child together.
Becky Lynch’s success in the ring has translated into financial stability and growing influence in sports entertainment. With multiple championship victories and main-event appearances, she has become one of WWE’s highest-paid female performers. Beyond wrestling, she has made appearances in various media, enhancing her profile as one of the most prominent Irish athletes internationally.
