The first-ever SmackDown Live Women’s Champion, Becky Lynch, recently did a Q&A with Amarillo.com to promote the SmackDown Live event from the Amarillo Civic Center on July 3rd.

Here are a few highlights of what was discussed with Becky Lynch during the Q&A:

Becky On The SmackDown Live Women’s Division:

“I think it has helped breed healthy competition. We on SmackDown Live want to prove that we’re better than RAW. We’re constantly looking at how our matches can be better. Everyone wants to push each other and it helps us all have better matches. In NXT when we got labeled “The Four Horsewomen”, it’s because we had compelling matches. I think this ladder match on Tuesday is another step. Having it on pay-per-view is one thing, but to have it on live TV is another.”

Breaking James Ellsworth’s Arm:

“You know I am, I can’t wait to get my hands on him. I’m hoping for Summerslam, I’m hoping to fight him there in a cage match or something.”

Her Thoughts On The Brand Split:

“I love it, it’s brilliant. I think that Smackdown Live has thrived. I think before, it was just a two hour repeat of what happened on RAW. You’d see the same people doing the same thing to evolve the story a little bit. Now we have an entirely different following and I maybe bias, but I think SmackDown Live is a better show. Maybe it’s the two-hour time slot, or the great writing and engaging stories. I can’t speak on RAW, because I can’t watch it because we’re doing shows like the one on that Monday in Amarillo.”

Women’s Royal Rumble:

“I think there’ll definitely be a time where the women get their own Royal Rumble. When you look at the fact that in July there is the Mae Young Classic taking place between 32 women. Then, you have the women in NXT and the women on both brands. I think it’s a year or two away from having our own Royal Rumble, then maybe our tag titles, the sky is the limit.”

Her Favorite Wrestlers To Watch:

“A.J. Styles and Sami Zayn, they’re both so good. A.J. can do anything; he can do crazy flips but it’s his in-between, his timing and pacing is perfect. I’ve never watched an A.J. match and said that’s boring, he’s such a great storyteller. Then Sami Zayn, wow, there is no one that can get that sympathy, he’s so great to watch because he’s so agile.”

WrestleMania 32 W/ Sasha Banks & Charlotte:

“That’s a moment that is up there in my career. I left wrestling for seven years, I then came back and I told my friend my goal was to main event WrestleMania. Then, my first WrestleMania, I’m in our faces on our the side of AT&T Stadium. We didn’t main event it, but the fact is that we arguably had the best match on the card and we were given such a prominent position. We also changed the term from Diva to Women in our division. Diva is something I couldn’t resonate with. The fact we changed it at the biggest WrestleMania and we stole the show, what more could you ask for.”

Becky’s Thoughts On NXT:

“It gave us the freedom to grow and be creative. It gave us the opportunity to try things and see what it was like on a TV scale. I think that’s what made it successful and why fans loved it. It wasn’t a thing where you’re supposed to like this guy or hate this guy, you could see these people turning into characters and finding themselves and I think that was really engaging. The crowds felt like they were part of it and got behind it.”
