Becky Lynch Details the Turning Point of Her WWE Career

Over the years in WWE, we have seen many superstars have a downfall in their career after suffering an injury. But can an injury also make you one of the most successful wrestlers in WWE? Well, this sounds weird, right? If anyone would have said this line three years back, we would never believe that person. But now, there is a reason to believe this following the iconic nose-breaking moment involving Becky Lynch just before the 2018 Survivor Series PPV.

Lynch was the WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion back then. During one episode before the Survivor Series PPV, Becky Lynch and the other women wrestlers of SmackDown attacked Ronda Rousey and all the other women on the Raw roster. First, Lynch took out Rousey backstage and then led the charge inside the ring. Unfortunately for Lynch, she got her nose broken following a punch on her face from Nia Jax.

Recently, in an interview, Becky Lynch spoke to Vicente Beltran about being removed from her match with Ronda Rousey at the Survivor Series PPV because of her broken nose. Lynch admitted after breaking her nose she thought it would be the end of her push from WWE.

She said (h/t: Sportskeeda), “I suppose by being diligent, by being consistent. So, at the time, I had no idea what was going on. I thought this was it. This was over, but then all the other pictures came out, and it looked pretty freakin’ cool.”

“And then people got more interested in it, and I was like, okay, well we’re on to something and so then just kept going kept trying to ride that momentum until WrestleMania,” Lynch added.

Becky Lynch made history at WrestleMania 35

Her nose-breaking incident prior to the Survivor Series PPV played a major role in Becky Lynch’s career. After that incident, she received a major push from WWE mainly because of the massive support she got from the WWE universe.

According to reports, ‘The Man‘ was not supposed to headline WrestleMania 35. In fact, Charlotte Flair was supposed to face Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania 35. But due to her injury, Flair took Becky’s place at the Survivor Series PPV.

But her bloodstained images earned her a massive fan base and made him the biggest star in WWE at that moment. Soon, WWE put Becky Lynch in the title picture at WrestleMania 35. Lynch, Rousey, and Charlotte made history that night. It was the first time that the women would main event WrestleMania.

But Becky Lynch also got herself in the record books for another reason. She got the better of Ronda and Charlotte Flair that night to become the double champion. Not only did she become the Raw Women’s Champion on that night, but also the SmackDown Women’s Champion. It was indeed a night to remember for ‘The Man’.
