WWE legend to return and win the 2025 Royal Rumble Match; turning heel after 30 months? Potential swerve explored

Royal Rumble 2025 is WWE's next blockbuster premium live event. Despite being one and a half months away from the annual spectacle, fans and pundits have been speculating and predicting who will be the last men and women standing in the traditional Royal Rumble Match and earning the main event slot for WrestleMania 41.

While Men's Royal Rumble matches feature multiple names who could potentially win and main-event WrestleMania 41. But the Women’s Rumble contest is in doubt. As of now, there is no strong contender who could be considered or named as a potential winner. However, a name that’s on fans’ minds is Becky Lynch.

The Man's last televised appearance was marked on May 27, 2024, when she lost to Liv Morgan in a steel cage match for the WWE Women's World Championship rematch on Raw before she went on break.

In June, The Man's contract with the Stamford-based promotion expired, leading to multiple rumors that she might take a long hiatus from pro wrestling or even retire. However, recent reports claim that she might be close to signing a new multi-year contract with the promotion and has already hinted she will return soon.

In a shocking twist, we may see Becky Lynch returning at WWE Royal Rumble 2025 and entering the traditional Women’s Rumble Match, turning heel after thirty months and ensuring her main event shot at WrestleMania 41.

Why could former WWE Women's Champion Becky Lynch turn heel after winning Royal Rumble 2025?

The Ripley-Morgan saga might conclude WWE Royal Rumble in 2025, as Mami could finally defeat Liv for the title. Liv Morgan is currently set to face IYO SKY at Saturday Night Main Event, and if she manages to retain her title, The Nightmare might get her singles match against her at the Indianapolis premium live event.

Becky Lynch could reignite her rivalry with Rhea Ripley, potentially leading to a WrestleMania rematch between the two in Vegas. However, this time the creative could throw a curve ball by turning The Man heel. Rhea, being a beloved babyface, needs a top-class heel to face a 'Mania. It remains to be seen what plans Triple H has in store for Becky Lynch once she returns.
