Becky Lynch Comments on Intergender Matches, Being A Heel

Becky Lynch was recently interviewed by Bleacher Report in preparation for “Survivor Series” this Sunday. She discussed a number of topics, including her recent inter gender match with James Ellsworth, being a heel before coming to WWE, being the captain of her “Survivor Series” team and more.

Below are some highlights from the interview:

On being a heel before coming to WWE:

“When I was on the independent circuit, I always played the heel role, but I always felt that no matter what, I was able to connect with the fans,’ Lynch said. “Whether I was good or not, there was a connection there because I think I just really love wrestling. If you’re a fan, you love wrestling. When you can feel that radiating off somebody, I think you tend to gravitate toward them.”

On her inter-gender match with James Ellsworth:

“With that match, my whole hope was that people didn’t get up in arms about a guy touching a woman,” Lynch said. “And that it just became about the storyline as opposed to ‘Oh no! What’s going on in the world?’ It was more about entertainment than making any political or social statement.”

On competing at “Survivor Series:”

“I’m looking forward to getting in the ring once again with Bayley and Sasha,” Lynch noted. “It’s been a while since we’ve stepped in there together. And they are the other half of the Four Horsewomen that myself and Charlotte never get to see.

“I feel like all four of us have always brought the best out of each other. To be in the ring with them, I feel like that’s where magic happens.”

They also discuss “Total Divas,” the “Smackdown Live” Women’s Championship and more.
