In her Instagram post, Lynch conveyed her profound sense of honor in representing her homeland and her profession in such a significant setting. Additionally, she humorously recounted an interaction with the President, who purportedly predicted her victory in an upcoming match against Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 40, referring to her as “Becky Balboa.”

In addition to her heartfelt words, Lynch shared a snapshot of herself placing her autobiography in the White House library, a gesture she described as “classing up” the esteemed establishment. Her tweet expressing gratitude for the opportunity further emphasized her appreciation for the experience.

Unfortunately, quite a few WWE fans on the post lashed out at Becky Lynch for meeting with Joe Biden and many felt she should have been ashamed of herself.

‘I’ve never rooted for Rhea so badly in my life.

Just lost alot of respect for you. Why would you stand near that man.

Imagine 3.5 years into Biden’s presidency, being excited to meet the guy destroying this count.

What is worse than having your picture taken with Vince McMahon…? Well… this.

Congrats but I hope your smarter in November.”

However, not everyone was against Becky Lynch as quite a few people were also happy for The Man, including a lot of her colleagues and devoted fans.

In case you were not aware, Becky Lynch was supposed to make her Marvel Cinematic Debut in Eternals but it did not happen in the end. According to a report from Fightful Select, a post-credits scene featuring Becky Lynch had been removed from the Eternals movie. Although Lynch had a role in the film, details about her character were not provided by Marvel.

The scene was intended to set up future installments, and sources suggested that Lynch may still reprise her role in the future. The decision to cut the scene was not due to her performance, as Marvel Studios was reportedly satisfied with it. The scene’s removal was attributed to concerns that it was “too depressing,” leaving fans curious about its content and Marvel’s plans for the deleted clip.

Becky Lynch has since gone on to act in shows such as Young Rock and even made a brief cameo in Billions. We will have to wait and see whether the former RAW and SmackDown Women’s Champion will eventually make her way to the Marvel Cinematic Universe again, without plans getting scrapped.
