WWE superstar Becky Lynch is set to appear in the upcoming Star Trek: Starfleet Academy series on Paramount+, with her role recently unveiled just a month before the show’s premiere. Lynch, who was announced as part of the bridge crew in December 2024, was recently featured in a new clip showing her in action during an attack on the USS Athena. Her character has speaking lines in a scene starting at 1:30 in the clip. The series will launch on January 15, 2026, and will air new episodes weekly until March 12.
In wrestling, Becky Lynch’s latest match was at the Women’s WarGames event on November 29th, where her team was defeated. She also lost the Women’s Intercontinental Championship to Maxine Dupri on Raw on November 17th. Recently, she addressed speculation about a masked man’s involvement in the Men’s War Games match, who some believe was Seth Rollins.
Fan Take: Becky Lynch’s role in a major franchise like Star Trek highlights the growing crossover appeal of WWE athletes beyond the wrestling ring. This could attract new fans to WWE and showcase the diverse talents of its wrestlers, potentially elevating the sport’s profile and opening up more entertainment opportunities for its stars.
