We’ve written about Becky Lynch’s excellent use of social media to get more people talking about her as she gets ready for the Royal Rumble and a potential main event match at WrestleMania.
Lynch has really gotten herself over as “The Man” but at least one WWE Superstar took issue with the monicker and things seemed to get a little bit personal.
Mickie James said this on Twitter after Lynch proclaimed herself as The Man of the people: “Awe… this whole #TheMan thing is so cute in the age of #womensempowerment Boo. I’m for 1 am proud to be #TheWOMAN because after all we’ve always been the dominant sex! Or have you forgotten that @BeckyLynchWWE hanging out w/your new bestie lil’ Richard. See you at the rumble!?”
