10 Major Stars That Could Leave WWE Next

2. Becky Lynch

Becky Lynch became inarguably WWE's biggest full-time star in 2019, and the mantle was only passed to Roman Reigns during 'The Man's maternity break coming right as 'The Big Dog' took his own requisite time away to morph into 'The Tribal Chief'.

Even as the 1a to Roman's 1, Lynch remains vital to the ongoing regrowth of WWE's women's division under Triple H, but is that in her own plan? Murmurings from those close to her suggest not.

Specifically, her husband Seth Rollins, who noted in a radio interview in late-2022 that;

"Whether we go wherever she wants to...her acting career is starting to perk up a little bit and that’s where she wants to go, and so if we end up in that direction and that takes us out west, so be it. If not, then here we are...”

Few would resent Lynch or Rollins chasing a physically less demanding life should offers become available. If anything, they'd be wise to pursue them - as many of their peers have - too, and if Lynch's enormous star power can be leveraged into something beyond WWE, more power to her. For the former 'Big Time Becks', it might be a case of when, not if.
