"It’s crazy and sad" - Becky Lynch weighs in on Vince McMahon’s retirement
Becky Lynch knows that WWE is set to go through some big changes with Vince McMahon no longer at the helm.
Last month, Vince McMahon took to social media to announce his retirement from WWE. In the days following this massive announcement, it was revealed that Triple H would be taking over as the head of creative and talent relations.
The Man recently spoke with Mike Coppinger of ESPN to discuss a wide variety of subjects. When asked about Vince McMahon retiring from WWE, Lynch called it a dawning of a new era for the company.
"It is the dawning of a new era," Becky Lynch said. "For me, it's crazy and sad because everything I've ever known about WWE has always had Vince in charge, and we wouldn't have WWE the way it is if it wasn't for Vince. He's somebody who believed in me and allowed me to do everything that I've done."
She added:
"We have the opportunity to change some things that maybe weren't so great that we didn't love. I think everybody's very excited and optimistic because we know that the people in charge [are] some of the greatest minds in the business, you know. Having Triple H at the helm of the ship is phenomenal.”

Becky Lynch on how WWE creative will change under Triple H
With Triple H in charge of creative in WWE, there have already been noticeable changes across the board. For starters, former NXT talents have been brought up to the main roster, such as Iyo Sky (Io Shirai) and Dakota Kai. It also appears that Ciampa is beginning to receive a heavy push.
When asked how she feels the company will change under The Game, Lynch spoke about how creative plans used to consistently change at the last minute when Vince McMahon was in charge.
“There has been a tendency in the past for creative to change last minute, or we don't know where we're going,” Becky Lynch said. “It's hard to bring everybody along on this journey if we're rambling.”
