WWE Raw Superstar Becky Lynch will be celebrating St. Patrick’s Day in style with a trip to the White House.
The annual celebration falls on March 17 each year and celebrates St. Patrick, who is believed to have died on the day. While initially a religious holiday, the day has become a day of celebration of Irish culture.
Becky Lynch at the White House
As St. Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland, the date is of course significant to WWE’s first Irish-born female champion. Speaking recently to the New York Post, Lynch shared her unique plans for the annual celebration.
“I got invited to the White House because I’m Ireland’s national treasure,” said Lynch. “It’s a significant Irish celebration, so I’ll be there.”
Lynch won’t be the only notable name to attend the upcoming White House celebration. Leo Varadker, who is Ireland’s Taoiseach (Prime Minster) will also be in attendance and will likely speak with President Joe Biden, who is of Irish ancestry.
What’s Next for Becky Lynch?
Just one day after her Saint Patrick’s Day celebration, Lynch will be in action on the upcoming episode of Raw, where she will face Nia Jax. The two have been at odds for months, with Jax looking to prove she is deserving of a Women’s World Championship shot.
Looking ahead, Lynch will have her hands full when she challenges WWE Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 40. Lynch earned a shot at the Australian by winning the 2024 Women’s Elimination Chamber match.
