Last week, it was reported by John Pollock that WWE has backed off the heel turn for Becky Lynch after fans rejected it. Instead, she is playing more of a tweener role and she is no longer ripping on the fans.
WWE posted an alternate “fan cam” angle of Lynch’s attack on Charlotte Flair from Smackdown Live and they used the word “HEINOUS” when describing the attack, which led to some fans thinking that WWE is once again trying to get fans to think that Lynch is the heel in this feud.
It looks like some fans are just reading too much into things because “Road Dogg” Jesse James just wants fans to pick a side. So, it looks like the full-blown heel turn is still off the table, which should make fans happy. We’ll see how things play out on Sunday night when Lynch challenges Flair for the Smackdown Women’s Championship at the Hell in a Cell pay-per-view.
Give credit to everyone involved because this feud has been one of the highlights of WWE programming in recent weeks.

The safety of the fan is paramount at events. Makes ya think 🤔 don’t it?! If not, you’re not really seeing the bigger picture.
