Becky Lynch, Triple H, And The Wrestling World Reacts To Naomi Announcing Her Pregnancy On WWE Raw

Naomi vacated her WWE Women's World Championship on this week's episode of WWE Raw on Netflix, but had a very good reason for doing so.

After not being medically cleared to defend her world championship last week on Raw, Naomi addressed the WWE Universe this week on the show. Before she did, a clip of her on the Stephanie McMahon Podcast with her husband Jimmy Uso aired. In it, she revealed that she was pregnant and having a baby.

At first, Naomi refused to give her world title belt to Adam Pearce. Instead, she laid the belt in the ring and threatened the next champion. Naomi said that in nine months and some change, she'd be coming back to win her title back.

Moments after Naomi dropped the news on Raw this week, social media users reacted to her announcement -- including Becky Lynch. In a clear trolling of her critics when the same thing happened in 2020, Lynch wrote, "How irresponsible. Getting pregnant as a champion" in a post on X.
