SportsKeeda's WWE Superstar Of The Year 2018

Superstar of the Year (#1): Becky Lynch

Was there any doubt about this?

2018 has no doubt been the year of the Women's Revolution. But it wasn't just because of all the "first-time ever" Women's matches we got to see, but more thanks to women like Becky Lynch, Ronda Rousey, Charlotte Flair and others who proved that if given a chance they can exceed all expectations.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

Becky Lynch seemed to have been forgotten by the WWE creative ever since she lost the SmackDown Women's Championship in 2016. But, 2018 was the year of redemption for The Man as she has continued to be the focal point of the SmackDown Women's division this year.

Becky Lynch was always a crowd favorite but her fandom entered the next gear when she turned on her longtime best friend Charlotte Flair after Flair won the SmackDown Women's Championship at Summerslam defeating Lynch and Carmella.

Becky was finally able to capture the championship from Charlotte after defeating her in a Last Woman Standing match at Evolution, becoming a two-time Smackdown Women's Champion.

While she lost her championship at TLC thanks to interference from Ronda Rousey, things look bright for Becky Lynch in 2019.
