Having made a shock appearance in WWE Clash in Paris' main event World Heavyweight Title match, Becky Lynch has now made her first post-Clash comments.

For those who've yet to catch up with Clash in Paris, that main event saw Seth Rollins fend off the challenge of CM Punk, Jey Uso, and LA Knight to walk out of the Paris La Défense Arena still your World Heavyweight Champion. But the Visionary didn't exactly do so on his own merits...

As CM Punk had Rollins lifted up for the GTS, a masked figure hit the ring and nailed the Second City Saint with a low blow. That masked figure? Why, it was Seth's wife, Becky Lynch, fresh off retaining her Women's Intercontinental Championship against Nikki Bella earlier in the day. With that, Rollins was able to hit a Curb Stomp on Punk to get the 1-2-3.

Of course, the conclusion of the Clash in Paris main event has had fans questioning whether Becky is now a formal part of Seth's Vision faction, and the latest comments from the Man certainly seem to indicate that, with Lynch taking to X to state how "We run this business" and using "#TheVision".

If this is indeed as it seems, and Rollins and Lynch will be aligned on TV going forward, this won't be the first time that the two have been paired up on-screen. Back in 2019, on the heels of WrestleMania 35, Seth and Becky - as the WWE Universal Champion and the Raw Women's Champion, respectively - embarked on a feud against Baron Corbin and Lacey Evans. That babyface pairing for the two may have been somewhat so-so at the time, but putting the two together as heels now, as part of the Vision, has a whole bunch of potential to be something fantastic.

Not just is it notable that Becky Lynch has now joined forces with Seth Rollins, but arguably even more notable is that Becky screwed over CM Punk in the process. As a result, there's been plenty of speculation that this could be setting the stage for AJ Lee to return to WWE for the first time since 2015, with that being a part of a Lynch & Rollins vs. Lee & Punk story. It remains to be seen whether the former Divas Champion does return to the fold, but an AJ Lee return is seemingly as close to happening now as it's ever been at any point in the past decade.
