WWE has released season two of their documentary series Unreal on Netflix as of Jan. 20.
In the first episode, Becky Lynch comments that her current contract will probably be her last when it comes to being on the road. She discusses burn out from 2024 and discusses coming back to the ring after that break.
“When you’re in this world, and you’re always wanting to be on top. you have to kind of feel like you’re always fighting something, you’re fighting yourself. You’re fighting people that feel lie they wanna put you down. You’re also getting opinions about yourself constantly, about who your are. Not that you believe them, but maybe it lies somewhere in the back of your head where you’re going, like ‘Oh, maybe I am a bad person.’ I love working. I love getting out in front of the crowd. I love wrestling, but there’s also that hard part of, ‘Now mom’s got to go to work.’ That guilt is always hard. Like, I Had this little kid that I had then been leaving. I felt like when I’d come back, she was angry at me. Like I didn’t- I hadn’t had enough time with her. The time off, it was maybe gonna be forever. I don’t think I knew. I was kind of so content. This is probably it, this is the final run. This is the final contract. So I suppose it’s a matter of knowing that, understanding that and enjoying that the best I can.” (Fightful/Transcript)
Lynch is currently in her second reign as WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion. She has been signed with WWE since 2013.
