When Becky Lynch defeated her rival Charlotte Flair she decided to start calling herself “The Man”. Many WWE fans understood that she wasn’t talking about her gender but an obvious dig at Charlotte’s father's Ric Flair’s famous catchphrase, “To be the man, you gotta beat the man.”

As it's accepted that Charlotte inherited her father’s skill and prestige hence by beating Charlotte for the title, Becky “beat the man,” and has, therefore, become “the man.”

Because she has become the showcase for evolution and equality, Becky’s assertion that she is “The Man” has gained her fans of all ages and all types. It is a respect well-earned after years of hard work on SmackDown and could ultimately lead to her participating in the first ever all-women main event at WrestleMania 35 next year.
