WWE Superstar Becky Lynch has called herself the greatest women’s wrestler ever in the industry.
She pointed out that it’s not only her opinion, as others, including Sports Illustrated, have praised her the same way. In her decade-long WWE career, Lynch has won multiple championships. In 2019 she made history by competing in the first women’s main event at WrestleMania 35.
Now holding the WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship, Lynch continues to build her legacy. However, her claim sparked mixed reactions from fellow WWE stars Bianca Belair and Stephanie Vaquer.
Speaking on Sports Illustrated, Bianca Belair acknowledged that Lynch has the accolades to support. However she said, “She says it, she can back it up, and she actually has the accolades to back it up. With that being said, I will say that we have so much talent on our roster, and we just had the Evolution all-women’s PLE, and there’s so many amazing female wrestlers.”
Belair added, “Becky has a lot of accolades to back that up, but I feel like there’s other women on the roster as well that have accolades that can go toe to toe with her, and that’s what’s amazing about our roster.”
Stephanie Vaquer said it’s hard to name Becky Lynch the greatest, noting, “I think it’s difficult because it depends – everyone thinks different. We have an amazing, amazing division, it depends. She’s really, really good. She’s amazing. But, yeah, depends.” [H/T: Fightful]
