During a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, former TNA World Champion Nic Nemeth discussed the ongoing feud between Becky Lynch and Lyra Valkyria in WWE.
Nemeth noted that Lynch seems to be embracing the “Becky Hogan” nickname recently given to her by wrestling fans.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On why he likes the Becky Lynch vs. Lyra Valkyria feud: “I like, much like I said with the Punk-Seth stuff, when there’s reality to go into. When there’s different layers of knowing where friendships go, knowing where pieces are, and knowing you can go with something better. It was always something artificial like ‘I’m back! I’m the person who main events WrestleMania. And none of this…you guys don’t matter.’
On Becky Lynch leaning into the “Becky Hogan” memes: “Now you have the pieces of her leaning into, like, the Hogan treatment, to where she’s like ‘Yeah, I’m holding everybody down. What are you going to do about it? I’m holding everybody down. I’m calling the shots, because I’m the big name. I make the big bucks. You guys are on minimum wage here. Good luck with everything.’ So I really like when there’s…it doesn’t have to be like just an internet piece or a meme, when people are saying things, and you can lean into it, and whether it hurts your ego or you love it and base yourself off of it, we needed something different than just ‘Big Time Becks.’”
