In an interview with Channel Guide Magazine, Becky Lynch spoke about the negative reaction fans have been giving to Eva Marie for most of her career. Here are highlights:
On Charlotte vs Sasha Banks at WWE SummerSlam: “It’s an inspiration and really shows where we want to really go. Everyone wants that top spot and they are getting it. They are making the most out of it and are just not in that spot because they are just women. They are just good in general. They are getting the rewards they deserve.”
On Eva Marie: “Eva Marie is so hard-working. Yes, she is new. She gets so much flack from fans for being this gorgeous woman who, apparently, they say can’t wrestle, but she puts in the hard work. I love working with talent like that. It’s a challenge for me, but I feel it’s a great spot for me to be in because I can be a leader. I really enjoy that. I remember when I was coming in and having someone to keep you calm and help you through helps. Then you build this confidence. It does help because maybe they don’t have that confidence at first, and you are able to bring them through to a good match. Then they come back, and they are so excited. I absolutely love that.”
