A couple of weeks before this they were going to let me go. I’ve been fighting to survive this place since before day one. I’ll never be above what I had to do to stay alive. #happypaddysdaypic.twitter.com/bPbcUihhX9
Becky Lynch may be the most popular female star in WWE at present, but The Man would never have become a huge hit with the WWE Universe if she had been fired back in 2014.
The Man had a number of interesting gimmicks whilst in NXT, which included an Irish Dancer that dressed all in emerald green. Despite this, Lynch still became one of the Four Horsewomen alongside Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks, and Bayley, even though she's the only member of the group who was never NXT Women's Champion.

Lynch took to Twitter on St Patrick's day last year to deliver an inspirational message where she revealed that she was almost fired from NXT ahead of her debut back in 2014.
Lynch stated that she had been fighting to remain in WWE since she signed and even though she didn't reveal why she was almost let go by the company, the Tweet showed how much of a journey Lynch had been on to make it in WWE.
