#3 Becky Lynch lashes out at a fan after a dark match

After the latest WWE SmackDown episode went off the air, Becky Lynch fought Bianca Belair in a singles match. At one point during the bout, Belair allowed a fan dressed as The EST to whip Lynch on the head using her own hair.

After the SmackDown Women's Champion retained her title, she walked back to the entrance area and confronted this crowd member about the incident.

Here's a clip of Becky Lynch lashing out at the fan:

This is all part of Lynch's efforts to make her villainous character appear more unlikeable, and it seems to be gradually working with the crowds as well.


#2 Jim Ross compares Edge and Christian as breakout stars in WWE

On the latest episode of Grilling JR, Jim Ross spoke about Edge getting a bigger push in the company than the latter's tag team partner, Christian.

Although both men eventually evolved into singles competitors, the veteran commentator said that Christian was the "clear number two" of the team when it came to becoming a breakout star.

“I always thought Edge was going to be a breakout star because he connected with the audience, and Jay [Jay Reso, Christian’s real name] was always the clear number two on that team. So I was glad they both got their opportunity to grow on their own, but I always thought that Edge had a little bit of a leg up in that scenario, but that does not mean by any stretch of the imagination that Christian wasn’t a very good hand,” Ross stated.

Jim Ross has always been a fan of the current IMPACT World Champion's in-ring work. However, he felt that Edge was more charismatic between the two.

Both superstars briefly reunited during this year's Royal Rumble match, after which Christian signed with AEW. Who do you think was the better talent when they were tag team partners? Let us know in the comments section below.
