Becky Lynch Was Originally To Turn Heel At WWE Money In The Bank?
Natalya to leave WWE when her contract expires this summer?
At Money in the Bank on Sunday night, we saw fan favorite Natalya turn heel for the first time in years.
According to PWInsider, that was not always the plan. Originally, Becky Lynch was going to be the one to turn, but that was called off. As of yet, there isn’t a clear reason for the change in plans.
There is also some speculation that Natalya may be on her way out of the company altogether. With her husband Tyson Kidd out of action for over a year now, she may decide to spend more time with him off the road when her contract runs out. There is nothing concrete yet, but backstage it’s believed she may be out soon.
Becky turning would have been an interesting move, but besides Sasha Banks (and Paige to a lesser extent) there aren’t really any over babyfaces in the women’s division. That makes Natalya the more logical choice.
Nattie leaving the company would be unfortunate, as she’s been putting on some great matches with the younger talent on the roster, and is still in great shape. With her passion for the wrestling business, it would be a loss to see her go. Hopefully Tyson can come back soon, and the couple can continue their run on TV for years to come.
