Lynch’s comments quickly led to online speculation of Lynch has retired from wrestling.

Fightful Select’s Sean Ross Sapp reported that his sources within WWE stated that if that was an official retirement announcement from Lynch, they they were not informed of that being the case for her.

Those same sources spoken to reported stated that they “didn’t believe” Lynch would retire through an Instagram post.

Those same sources spoken to reportedly also noted that due to the belief that she is not under contract with WWE right now, Lunch does not have any obligation to inform the company of her decision to retire if that is the decision she makes.

Sapp reported that Lynch is very much still warmly regarded in WWE and the company wants to be “respectful of her space” after what she has given to the company. Those spoken to reportedly stated that Lynch would always be welcomed back into WWE.
