Becky Lynch is gearing up to challenge Rhea Ripley for the Women’s World Championship at WrestleMania, and fans are suggesting that the creative team incorporate a current champion into their storyline.
That champion is none other than Finn Balor, a fellow member of Mami’s Judgment Day stable. Despite his association with the reigning Women’s World Champion, Balor shares a long-standing history with Lynch, Ripley’s challenger.
Balor and Lynch have been close friends for over twenty years, tracing back to when the former Universal Champion mentored the #1 contender.
Lynch often acknowledges Balor for guiding her through the intricacies of the wrestling world, while Balor commends her as one of the most hardworking talents he’s encountered during his time in the wrestling school in Ireland.
Many WWE fans feel it would be fitting for Finn Balor to make at least a brief appearance during the title feud between Lynch and Rhea Ripley leading up to WrestleMania.
Some believe a backstage segment would suffice, while others see an opportunity for the creative team to plant the seeds of a potential split within The Judgment Day stable.
I'd like to see Finn Balor get involved in Becky Lynch and Rhea Ripley's feud.
Finn was Becky's trainer & they've been friends for over 20 years. Now he's in a faction with Rhea.

“Everyone in the Elimination Chamber did exceptionally well. They all put up such a fantastic fight. I was watching very, very closely. I think heading into WrestleMania against Becky Lynch is a real bucket list moment. I’ve nearly knocked off everyone in the Horsewomen and Becky’s the last one.”
The upcoming WrestleMania match marks the first encounter between Becky Lynch and Rhea Ripley for a championship on the main roster. The two superstars recently engaged in a heated exchange of words on RAW, setting the stage for what promises to be a fierce showdown.
