Professional wrestling star, Becky Lynch has extended an invitation to her compatriot, former two-weight UFC champion, Conor McGregor to attend Wrestlemania 39 next year in Hollywood, California – as well as partner her at the event, after McGregor questioned why he had not been invited by the organization to this year’s two-day event.

Lynch, a native of Limerick, featured on the opening night of Wrestlemania 38 in Dallas, Texas – suffering a pinfall defeat in her RAW women’s championship loss against Bianca Belair on Saturday at the AT&T Stadium. 

For McGregor, the Dubliner has been sidelined since July of last year where he headlined UFC 264 against former interim lightweight champion, Dustin Poirier – dropping a first round doctor’s stoppage TKO loss against the Louisana native after he suffered a fractured tibia in his left leg.

Posing the question as to why he wasn’t involved in some capacity at Wrestlemania this year, McGregor claimed that “they” “fear” him as the main reason for his invitation snub.

“Why wasn’t I at Wrestlemania?” Conor McGregor tweeted. “They all fear me, that’s why.”
