Becky Lynch’s current success was a long time coming. However, it was not easy at all. She was neglected for a long time and her previous reign as Smackdown champion was subpar.
Becky spoke to E&C’s Pod of Awesomeness, where she revealed
the frustration of still not being featured as the face of SmackDown despite her meteoric rise in popularity. This is what she said:
“I still see, I walk into SmackDown on Tuesday and I see the posters and the only woman on there is Charlotte and I’m like, ‘Oh my God, no matter how much things change they stay the same.’ I’m the champ and I’m still not on those posters.”
“There is that I’m still not the face of the face of the company no matter how much interest I’m drumming up right now, I’m still not the chosen one. That’s fine, that’s fine because that gives me a lot more fuel to the fire.”
“Right now everybody’s warming themselves on the fire that I started. They’re sitting around with their blankets at this campfire talking about how I buried them on Twitter or how I said this or I said that. Well, look I’m just coming at you from a place of truth. That’s all I’m doing. I’m just telling the truth. They can complain about how I haven’t been able to be in the ing etc etc. I got sucker-punched, right? I haven’t been able to do what I love to do which is go out there and fight every night.”
“So what do I do? I fight with my mouth. So I’m running my mouth a little bit more on social media now and I love it because it’s getting everybody hot.”
Becky still has an uphill battle, but one can be sure that she will not give up until WWE management recognizes her true potential as well.
