Becky Lynch won the Raw and SmackDown Women’s Championship in the main event of WrestleMania 35. It was a victory that marked the end of a long journey for “The Man,” but some fans believe that she been losing some momentum ever since she won the titles last month. However, Lynch is not ready to get complacent in WWE. While speaking with Comicbook.com, Lynch said that she still has a lot that she wants to accomplish in WWE. Not only does Lynch want to represent both WWE shows as the champion, but she also wants to headline every show that WWE does. Although she has accomplished her goal to headline WrestleMania, Lynch boldly stated that her next goal is to become the greatest star in WWE history.
Earlier in the week, comments that WWE Superstar Lars Sullivan made online resurfaced. The posts were made on a bodybuilding forum before he joined WWE, and they have been called racist, homophobic, and misogynistic by some. A couple of WWE Superstars have commented on the situation involving Sullivan, and Raw Superstar Kalisto did the same on Twitter a couple of days ago. The former Cruiserweight Champion simply warned Sullivan to stay out his way. Kalisto’s tweet comes right after Big E put out a statement calling Sullivan a “bigot” for the posts. WWE has not taken any action against Sullivan as of yet, but the new SmackDown roster member did apologize for the comments and said that they do not reflect who he is today.
He just needs to get out of my way….I’m Latino….???? https://t.co/HLIZ6jqLrt

Impact Wrestling decided to release Eli Drake from his contract last month following some issues involving the former Impact World Champion. Drake first made waves behind the scenes when he refused to go wrestle Tessa Blanchard in an intergender match, and the issues backstage apparently only got worse from there. However, Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp noted in a Q&A on Friday that WWE is interested in signing Drake to a deal at some point. However, Drake is facing some potential legal ramifications from Impact for a supposed breach of contract right now, and WWE won’t touch him until that is taken care of. Drake could sign with WWE if the issues is dealt with soon, but if not, Drake won’t be allowed to sign with a major wrestling promotion for at least a year.
