WWE Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley vs. Becky Lynch is slated to take place at WrestleMania 40. However, the entire match order for the show has yet to be determined.
Becky told ClutchPoints that she would love to open the first night of the event. She said,
“I would love to open the show. I would love that. I’ve never opened WrestleMania before. To open this one, as big as it is in Philadelphia, I’m just putting that out there,” she manifested with a laugh. “It would be pretty cool because if it’s not the main event, I always want to be the opening spot — it’s always a great place on the card because people are so excited.”
She continued, “Ooh, night one. I would love to open the whole of WrestleMania, you know what I’m saying? Just [to] be that first match for that whole event. [Opening the show will] give me enough time that I can relax and really enjoy Colby [Rollins] main eventing WrestleMania and getting to watch him do that because that will be so special,” she said.
WrestleMania 40 is just around the corner, and fans are eagerly anticipating the showdown between WWE Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley and the returning Becky Lynch. However, while this highly-anticipated match is confirmed, the exact order of matches for the event is yet to be determined.
In an exclusive interview with ClutchPoints, Becky Lynch expressed her desire to open the first night of WrestleMania 40. Opening the show would be a new experience for Lynch, who has never had the opportunity to do so before. She believes that opening the event in Philadelphia, a city known for its passionate wrestling fans, would be a memorable moment in her career.
Lynch explained that being in the opening spot on the card is always exciting because the crowd is filled with anticipation and energy. She emphasized that if she is not in the main event, she would love to kick off the show and set the tone for the rest of the evening.
The Irish Lass Kicker also expressed her enthusiasm for WrestleMania being a two-night event. She specifically mentioned her desire to open the entire WrestleMania weekend, not just one night. Lynch believes that being the first match of the entire event would give her enough time to relax and fully enjoy watching her partner, Colby “Rollins” Lopez, main event WrestleMania.
Lynch’s desire to open WrestleMania 40 reflects her passion for performing and her understanding of the significance of such a position. Opening the show would allow her to make a strong impact and captivate the audience right from the start. It would also give her the opportunity to support and cheer on her partner in his main event match.
While the final decision on the match order rests with WWE officials, Lynch’s wish to open WrestleMania 40 is a testament to her dedication and love for the industry. As one of the most popular and influential female wrestlers in recent years, her presence at the beginning of the event would undoubtedly set the stage for an unforgettable night of action.
As fans eagerly await the announcement of the match order for WrestleMania 40, the prospect of Becky Lynch opening the show adds an extra layer of excitement. Whether she gets her wish or not, one thing is for certain – Lynch’s return to the grandest stage of them all will be a momentous occasion for both her and the WWE Universe.
