WWE Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch recently spoke with ESPN to promote the new ESPN The Magazine cover where she is featured alongside Alison Brie.
In this interview, she spoke about a wide range of topics including to describe what “The Man” means. Here is what she had to say:
“For me, the top person, the person of the most extraordinary ability, has always been referred to as “The Man.” And until this moment, that person of exceptional ability has always been a man,” Lynch said. “So when I broke out and started claiming my status as the top dog in WWE, I started referring to myself as ‘The Man.'”
“Oh yeah. People lost their minds. I look at it as the most empowering thing. I’m turning gender roles on their head.”
The Extreme Rules pay-per-view event takes place on Sunday, July 14th, 2019 in Philadelphia, PA at the Wells Fargo Center and will air on the WWE Network and some traditional pay-per-view outlets.
