Becky Lynch recently appeared on WWE’s “After The Bell” podcast and discussed her friendship with Finn Balor, who will challenge her husband, Seth Rollins, for the World Heavyweight Championship at WWE Money In the Bank 2023 this weekend.
The Man humorously acknowledged the “conflict of interest” in the match, considering Balor trained her and is now facing her husband. She said,
“Obviously, this one’s a bit of a conflict of interest. You know, the person who trained me and then my husband. And you know, myself and Finn have been friends for over 20 years at this stage. And the fact that we’ve both made it to the highest level. The thing is though, when you saw Finn, when I walked into that gym for the first time and saw him, you knew he was going to make it. You know, you were like, not only was he your teacher, so obviously you looked up to him and respected him like that, but he had that presence about him that you knew he was going to make it. So, and see everything that he’s done, especially lately with The Judgment Day and being one of the hottest acts on TV. But then you go, ‘God, just stop jumping my husband.’ You know, like, ‘I don’t want to hate you. You’re making me hate you. What are you doing?’ Gotta give him some of them. [slaps].”
