The contraction wasn't (was not) is not a linking verb. A linking verb acts as an equals sign, the object of the verb is a different form of the subject or the subject becomes the object. The word 'not' in the contraction ensures that the object is not the same as the subject, for example:
Mary was the first to arrive. (The verb was is a linking verb because Mary = first)
Mary wasn't the first to arrive. (Mary is not the first)
