Becky Lynch has a pretty smart frame of mind when it comes to what’s being written about her online.
RAW Superstar Becky Lynch was a recent guest on Sports Media with Richard Deitsch. When asked if she keeps up with what’s been written about her in the media, Lynch said it’s something she tries to ignore.
“I try not to keep stock of what anybody is saying about me,” Becky Lynch said. “I try to avoid comments; I try to avoid dirt sheets. Because I think of myself as an artist. I do think of myself as an artist. And I think when you are bombarded by opinions, good or bad, it takes an effect on you.
“And one way or the other, whether you’re mentally strong enough to say, well, that doesn’t bother me, somewhere it lives in your head. Especially when it’s the negative stuff, it will live in your head. But even the good stuff, like what brought you to the dance, doesn’t always keep you at the dance. So you have to be able to adapt.
“You have to be able to trust your instincts and go with that. And I find that in this world where we are constantly being bombarded by opinions, you should be this, you should do that. It takes different thinking to be able to stand out. You have to be able to trust yourself because you’re the one that followed your gut to get to where you want to get to.
Becky Lynch: I don’t want anybody else’s mind in my mind
“So if you’re listening to other people saying, well, I would have done this, I would have done that. Well, you didn’t, and you haven’t lived the life that I’ve been in. You haven’t spent the experience that I have spent in the ring and around the business. So I think there’s a way of respecting other people’s opinions but trying not to get too invested and involved because, one way or another, whatever anybody says to you, it lives in your brain. And it’ll affect something that you do, whether you like it or not.
“Whether Billie Joe Murphy is saying that he didn’t like your clothes and you’re like, oh, maybe I shouldn’t wear those clothes. And maybe you’re not even thinking well, Billy Joe didn’t like my clothes, and so I shouldn’t wear those clothes, but some way you’re going, maybe I don’t want to wear this. You just don’t know how these things are going to affect you. And I like to kind of keep my mind as my mind. I don’t want anybody else’s mind in my mind.”
