Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp stated that he doesn’t anticipate Becky Lynch being on the WrestleMania 41 card. He also added that there were plans pitched for ‘Mania for her’ at one point, but it’s unclear what happened afterward.

Update on JD McDonagh & Kairi Sane

Kairi Sane has been absent from WWE programming since December 2024, it was later revealed that she is suffering from an arm injury. According to PWInsider Kairi Sane is “very close” to being cleared to return to the squared ring.

PWInsider also reports that the internal belief in WWE is that JD McDonagh could return by the end of April. McDonagh suffered broken ribs and a punctured lung during a World title match alongside Dominik Mysterio where he finished the match despite injury against The War Raiders (Erik & Ivar).

JD McDonagh on breaking a rib and puncturing his lung:"I could feel my ribs on this side were like Rice Krispies under my skin, they're definitely messed up. I couldn't get a full lung full of air but I just thought that was because I was winded from hitting the table." pic.twitter.com/dcQHHGYvC9

Tiffany Stratton & Charlotte Flair’s segment on SmackDown

Ahead of their title clash at WrestleMania 41 PLE, WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton and Charlotte Flair engaged in a segment moderated by Wade Barrett.

However, what was supposed to be a segment involving a heated exchange turned into a war of words where both reportedly went off script and started throwing personal jabs at each other. While Tiffany brought up Flair’s recent divorce, mentioning her ‘0-3 record’ in reference to her marriages. Flair fired back, suggesting that Stratton’s boyfriend, Ludwig Kaiser was sliding into her DMs.

According to PWInsider, the segment went off from their planned script, sources suggest Tiffany’s “0-3” comment was a clapback at Charlotte for dominating a previous exchange. While some felt Stratton held her own and regained attention—especially in front of a Chicago crowd that was clearly behind her—others believed the unscripted direction didn’t benefit either star.
