For several years now, wrestling fans have known that Becky Lynch is a game-changer, and “Big Time Becks” was recently recognized for her remarkable career.
Lynch, alongside Ronda Rousey and Charlotte Flair, made history at WWE WrestleMania 35 when they became the first women to main event the show. “The Man”, as she was known at the time, emerged victorious and walked away with both the RAW and SmackDown Women’s Championships. Lynch went on to hold the red brand’s title for over a year before she relinquished it due to her pregnancy.
Now, Glazia Magazine has honored Lynch by including her on the list of the top female game-changers in the 21st century. Other members of the list include Michelle Obama, Kamala Harris, and Greta Thunberg, among others.
Glazia wrote the following:
Becky Lynch is an Irish professional wrestler and also the first woman to win Wrestlemania’s first ever all-female event.
In 2019, Lynch became the first woman to hold Smackdown Women’s Championship and Raw women’s championship simultaneously.
Lynch would go on to become a four-time SmackDown Women’s Champion. Lynch also stands for equalism and women empowerment in every sector.
“With women empowerment and women coming together, it’s not about being better than the guys or whatever. It’s not just about collaboration; it’s about being equal people and having more of a highlight on women’s athletics, and just women being equal in every aspect.”
In a tweet, Lynch commented on the news by saying it was “so very cool” to be named among the other remarkable members of the list.
So very cool to be named along side these amazing women. We rely on each other to change the game for all. https://t.co/R77bVhMror
