WWE's Becky Lynch To Appear On Billions
The Man will star in Season 5 premiere.
WWE Raw Women's Champion Becky Lynch today confirmed that she has bagged a role on Showtime's hit drama Billions, whilst appearing with the programme's showrunner Brian Koppelman on the latest episode of WWE's The Bump.
Koppelman, a huge wrestling fan, has regularly dropped references to the industry into Billions since it began airing in 2016. He was part of The Bump to discuss his childhood passion for the sport, citing Becky Lynch as the one who recently got him re-hooked. The Man herself was then on the line, revealing the bombshell that she'll be appearing in the flesh on an upcoming episode of Billions on 3 May.
This link-up has been a while in the making. This time last year, Koppelman was spotted wearing her merchandise during a Billions Watchathon, after which he said Lynch had an open invitation to appear on the show if she wanted to. Becky responded, "Let's do this."
Do this they did, and the Irish Lass Kicker will now make her Billions debut when it returns for a 5th season at the start of next month. There are no details on her exact role as yet, though Koppelman did say the character was specifically tailored to her personality.
