“Big Fan of Whatever They Say” – Becky Lynch Brings Up Unexpected Brad Pitt Reference While Addressing Her Popularity in USA

Wrestlers like Hulk Hogan and Steve Austin brought wrestling to pop culture and enjoyed celebrity status. Being a top star means not only handling work inside the ring but also the adoration and criticism from the fans outside it. Some stars are well prepared by the company to handle such a rise, but in some cases, WWE stars shoot to stardom out of nowhere, and with it comes a lot of different scenarios they experience, which is something that happened with Becky Lynch.

Coming from a small town in Ireland, Lynch started her career miles away from the US. Wrestling from dingy basements to filled arenas was a steep climb, but ‘The Man’ has finally made it. But no one tells you how to prepare for a mass audience in your personal life. So, how do you think Lynch faced her rise in popularity in the States?

Becky Lynch comments on her experience with fan interactions in real life

Arriving on The Tommy Tiernan Show, Becky Lynch talked about her successful career in wrestling. Starting from her rise to the top to her love for wrestling fans, ‘The Man’ went on and on about how much she loves being a professional wrestler. But with that comes the question, how is she able to cope with the popularity of being a top star in the biggest sports entertainment company in the world?

Being one of the biggest names in modern wrestling, Tiernan asked Lynch if people recognized her on the street. Lynch agreed to be noticed in public, and Tiernan then asked how she dealt with it. Lynch replied, “I mean, I’m not Brad Pitt, so it’s not overwhelming. I think, for the most part, people are respectful. I’m a big fan of whatever they say.”

After that, Tiernan asks Lynch if there are dolls based on her, and she mentioned she has action figures, a Barbie doll, and even a teddy bear, made out of her image. So, she might not be as popular as Brad Pitt, but she is climbing the ranks in entertainment as well.

This rise in popularity came when the former Raw Women’s Champion came out of Charlotte Flair‘s shadow. Being paired with The Queen since her main roster debut, the fans overlooked her on many occasions. But taking charge and turning heel against Flair led to Lynch shooting off to the moon.

The fans fell in love with ‘The Man’ Becky Lynch and she began her climb to the top. Vociferous and deafening crowd support turned Lynch from just another wrestler on the roster to a main event status and working with the biggest stars of the world.
