Becky Lynch on what it means to her if she faces Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 40
“It’s a chance. It’s a chance to take that title where it is sitting happily on her shoulder not being threatened very much because she avoids it at all costs, whether she will attack somebody before the bell or maybe she’ll have little Dom Dom interfere, but there is an interesting thing there, though, because two of her little gang, well, I’ve known them for 21 years, so you got to ask when it comes down to it and it will come down to it which side are they going to be on, but really for me, more than anything, it’s taking that title and making it relevant again.”
“She’s been walking around with it. I’m the best. I’m the greatest; you don’t do anything, you don’t defend it, and you just walk around holding it like it’s a little trophy. She has all the potential, she has all the good, she’s great, and she’s got a natural finesse, but I have a scrappiness, a heart, and a passion that is undeniable and that I don’t think that she can compete with, and I want our champion to have heart and to care because the question is, is that title not represented because Rhea doesn’t care or because she’s lazy?”
