#2 Becky Lynch

It was big
It was big

The only woman in the list (or should I say, the only Man) is Becky Lynch. Lynch turned on Charlotte Flair at Summerslam 2018. This move started a new revolution in WWE.

Build-up:

Lynch was on a winning streak after being a non-factor for a few months. She earned the title shot by defeating former champion Carmella in a non-title match. Flair was given a shot by also beating Carmella. This enraged Lynch, but she remained sensible. Until the PPV, only a tiny sign of the rift between the two was shown.

Execution:

All three women, Flair, Lynch and Carmella, gave their best in the title match at Summerslam. When Lynch was about to tap out Carmella, Flair hit Lynch with Natural Selection for the win. Similar to Styles and Nakamura, the former friends shook hands in the ring only for Lynch to snap.

Lynch completely annihilated Flair and stood there receiving a thunderous ovation from the crowd.

Aftermath:

Initially, WWE wanted fans to boo Lynch and cheer for Flair. The WWE fans, being stubborn, did exactly the opposite and instead booed Flair and cheered loudly for Lynch.

Lynch soon got turned into an anti-hero personality for fans. They rooted for her in every situation.

Today, Lynch has turned into one of the biggest stars of WWE. She is more over than she has ever been.

She may have lost the title but her feud against Rousey and Flair has been the best thing on WWE television for a long time. She is rumoured to headline WrestleMania next year.
