The 2019 Royal Rumble PPV is just 9 nights away which means we are just 9 days away from the 2nd women's Royal Rumble match in WWE history.
The first ever women's Royal Rumble match took place in 2018 which saw the Empress of Tomorrow emerge as the last woman standing. While one of the key reasons why Asuka won that match was that she had a long unbeaten streak in WWE back then and the Creative team did not want to snap it in a Royal Rumble match. However, that unbeaten streak came to an end at WrestleMania 34 when Charlotte Flair made the Japanese superstar tap out to the Figure 8 leg lock.
But, things have changed a lot in the WWE's female division and currently, Becky Lynch and Ronda Rousey can be hailed as the MVPs of the division. While Ronda Rousey is the reigning RAW Women's Champion, Becky will be competing for the SD Live Women's title on the Royal Rumble PPV.
Despite the fact that she is in the title match, a lot of rumors suggest that Becky is the favorite to win the Royal Rumble match this year. So, here are the 5 reasons why the Irish Lasskicker should win the 30-woman Royal Rumble match:
#5 To market the SmackDown Women's Champion feud as the clash between the 2 Royal Rumble winners
In order to enter the Royal Rumble match, Becky Lynch needs to lose her SD Live Women's Championship match earlier on the show and in case that happens and Becky wins the Rumble match to challenge Asuka once again, the WWE can book a WrestleMania match between the only 2 female Royal Rumble winners in WWE history.
While this reason does not appeal too much on paper, the WWE Creative has the skills to market this title match as the grandest WWE match in women's wrestling history.
#4 To give the 'fighter' quality to Becky Lynch's character
As I mentioned earlier, to enter the women's Royal Rumble match, Becky Lynch should fail to capture the SD Live Women's Championship earlier on the show. After she would have failed to win the title, Becky should make her entry official in the Royal Rumble match in a backstage interview.
Becky should then enter the Rumble match early (between 1-10 positions) and then outlast 29 other women to win the match. This would not only increase Becky Lynch's popularity amongst the WWE Universe but would also solidify her character as a fighter.
Right now, some fans have started hating Becky's character saying that she has way more arrogance and has developed a big attitude without doing many great things. So, this would turn the WWE Universe in favor of The Man and would also establish her as a Fighter.
#3 To establish her as the next Stone Cold Steve Austin of the company
Talking about attitude, fans have also started comparing Becky Lynch with the Texas Rattlesnake, Stone Cold Steve Austin. One of the key reasons behind it is that Stone Cold was a character who was neither a heel nor a face, he just worked to enthuse the fans. Becky Lynch's character has been built in the same manner and is the prime reason behind her immense popularity.
However, Becky has to still achieve a lot in her WWE career. If WWE is seriously thinking of building her as the female Stone Cold Steve Austin, then they should allow her to stand tall after the Royal Rumble match in front of a 40,000 strong Chase Field crowd. Also, the Texas Rattlesnake had won 3 Royal Rumble matches in the WWE, so a Becky Lynch win in the 2019 Royal Rumble match will just be the beginning of The Man's era.
#2 To give the WWE Universe a dream match between Becky Lynch and Ronda Rousey
In the month of November last year, WWE TV was all about the feud between Ronda Rousey and Becky Lynch. The two women had set the RAW and SmackDown shows on fire with their epic promos and the shots that they took on each other on Twitter. Both the female superstars had were at their best and this match had grabbed the attention of every wrestling fan on the planet.
However, just 6 nights before the Survivor Series PPV (where this match was scheduled to take place), Nia Jax injured Becky Lynch which led to Charlotte Flair taking Becky's place in the match. It is being rumored that a triple threat match between Ronda Rousey, Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch will headline WM 35 but in my opinion, it should be Ronda Rousey vs Becky Lynch that should close the Show of Shows this year.
#1 To give Becky Lynch her WrestleMania moment
Becky Lynch has been a part of 3 WrestleManias but the Irish superstar is yet to get her WrestleMania moment. A WrestleMania moment is something every superstar dreams as WrestleMania is the most watched wrestling show on the planet and a victory on the Grandest Stage guarantees a huge change in the superstar's career.
Just imagine, Becky Lynch winning the Royal Rumble match and then challenging the undefeated Ronda Rousey with Shayna Baszler on her side for the RAW Women's Championship in the main event of WrestleMania. And, after conquering all the odds, Lynch finally wins the RAW Women's Championship to one of the loudest pops in WWE history.
This moment would not only be the WrestleMania moment of Becky Lynch's career but will also be the WrestleMania moment of the entire women's division of WWE as it will be elevated to a whole a new level after that night.
