WWE stars Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch, despite being major figures in the wrestling world, keep their holiday traditions straightforward by opting out of exchanging Christmas presents. In a recent interview with Clutch Points, Rollins was asked about the best gift they had given each other during Christmas, to which he revealed they don’t give each other gifts at all, responding humorously, “Well, I’m not giving you Christmas presents, so it’s easy.”
Becky Lynch shared that this approach isn’t new; it’s been their choice since the start of their relationship. She explained, “From the beginning, I said I didn’t want any Christmas presents,” adding that this decision felt reassuring. Their reasoning stems from wanting to avoid the holiday gift-giving pressure, which Rollins described as overwhelming — having to buy gifts for everyone including partners, friends, and colleagues. Eliminating this tradition has significantly reduced their holiday stress.
Being financially independent adults, Lynch noted they simply purchase whatever they want on their own, making exchanged gifts less essential. Rollins admitted that his interviewer wasn’t very impressed by their no-gift policy, but emphasized that the intent is to avoid unnecessary pressure, saying, “Don’t put pressure on your opponent. That’s the idea.” So rather than scrambling with last-minute shopping and wrapping, the couple prefers to relax and enjoy the holiday season stress-free.
