During a recent interview with Upfront, WWE Superstar Becky Lynch commented on a variety of topics, including the way she feels she’s been able to change how people view women in sports and entertainment.
Additionally, “The Man” opened up about wanting to headline WrestleMania, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On changing the view of women in sports: “I’ve been lucky enough to be in a spot where I’ve been able to change the way people view women in sports or in sports entertainment and wrestling. Usually there would be one token women’s match on a card, and we’ve thrown all that out the window.”
On wanting to headline on WrestleMania: “I always wanted to main event WrestleMania. That was always my goal, but I never wanted it to be a courtesy act. I never wanted it to be like, ‘Oh, here we go, the women are main eventing WrestleMania.’ I wanted it to be because there was no other option than us, that the story was so undeniably good, that it was the best story, and I think the best story should always win the main event of WrestleMania, gender aside, and that was what we got.”
