Lana's WWE career has gone in a completely different direction ever since her husband, Miro (fka Rusev), was released from the company.

Lana has been pushed as an underdog wrestler on WWE RAW, and she continues to be featured regularly on the Red brand.

During a recent interview with talkSPORT's Alex McCarthy, Lana revealed Becky Lynch's invaluable support in her career. Lana was grateful to Becky Lynch and said that the former RAW Women's Champion had helped her immensely.

"Becky has helped me a lot. That would be someone that probably people don't know about because of characters, storylines, etc."

Lana has learned tremendously from observing Becky Lynch. While The Man might have been a little tough on Lana on a few occasions, The Ravishing Russian was focused on absorbing all the technicalities about wrestling.

"But man, I have learned so much from Becky! I think partly, before The Man started, at live events, she would be in the match and taking heat, and I would be learning from her. She was so tough on me. But man, if she wasn't tough, I wouldn't be where I am right now. She was so tough - she would always be like 'toughen up!' and this and that."

Becky Lynch texts Lana almost every week, and the Irish Superstar is very proud of the Superstar's rise in the WWE.

"And now, I get texts from her saying 'I'm so proud of you.' She texts me every single week."

Becky Lynch has always motivated Lana, even in some very testing times. Lynch's words of encouragement have driven Lana to continue her development as a WWE performer.

"I'm so thankful for that because when this whole pandemic started, I remember being so discouraged, and I remember her telling me, you're so strong. You're such a strong woman. Now you've got to be who you are. Keep on carrying this, keep working hard, harder than anyone else so we can bring the people back that we love so much – and I remember those words."

Becky Lynch recently gave birth to her daughter Roux, and we don't have many details about her in-ring return. However, Lana has not stopped being a nuisance for Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler on WWE RAW.
