Vince McMahon has always had a keen eye for talents. He knew exactly when to turn a superstar heel or babyface. However, WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion Becky Lynch had other thoughts.

She believed that Vince McMahon would never turn her heel. But lo-and-behold! The Man is a top heel in the company now. Her return at SummerSlam this year, when she flattened Bianca Belair for the title, marked her heel turn.

Talking to Ryan Satin on his “Out of Character” podcast, Becky revealed what she was thinking before her big comeback at SummerSlam. Lynch revealed how she was thinking about new ideas to incorporate into her character.

“And so I was always thinking of what it would be like, what would my comeback be like, what would I do when I came back? ‘Vince is never gonna want me as a heel, so what does this new baby-face look like?’ Then they told me I was gonna be a heel!”

The new heel Becky Lynch is also getting over with the fans. As a WWE superstar, there is nothing more rewarding than the fans accepting you like both heel and baby-face.

Not many superstars can pull this off. But The Man is not like others, she is built differently.
