Everybody needs a break. Wrestling is a grueling sport with wrestlers spending a lot of time on the road every single week. With so many shows to perform on, it is rare for them to actually get any time off. That has been changing a bit in recent months with WWE allowing some couples a bit more time away from the ring. This was the case again this week and the absences were notable.

According to PWInsider.com, Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch were not at this week’s Monday Night Raw as the two were on vacation together. Rollins did appear in a pretaped backstage segment while Lynch was not on the show. Lynch tweeted about Sasha Banks’ promo during the show and did not seem to be impressed. Rollins and Lynch announced their engagement over the weekend.

Rollins and Lynch work together well. Check out a brawl involving the two of them earlier this year:

Opinion: This is one of those things that makes WWE come off as a little bit nicer. Last night’s Monday Night Raw didn’t really need Rollins and Lynch so it was kind of WWE to let them have some time off. If nothing else it lets them have some time to decompress after a pretty big weekend, so hopefully they can come back recharged instead of being even more burned out.

What do you expect from Lynch at Clash Of Champions? Should Rollins and Lynch ever team together again? Let us know in the comments below.
