It was last year in August when Becky Lynch started a winning streak of her own after a major change happened in her character. She won the SmackDown Women’s Championship after a major heel-turn. She turned on Charlotte Flair becoming a villain for the first time and started using “The Man” moniker. Fans appreciated this move where Lynch portrayed a character of an unfairly treated superstar.

As time progressed, WWE Universe became extremely fond of this gimmick of Becky Lynch. She took over the company and thereby we had the first-ever Women’s WrestleMania main event match. It was The Man who stood tall by capturing the WWE RAW and Smackdown Women’s Championship and thereby changing the show to WrestleMANia.
It was also the same night where she earned a nickname of being ‘Becky Two Belts’ for winning the two prime women’s titles in the WWE. After one year passed by since then, the Irish Lass-Kicker has opened up on the success of her transformation to a character that has been the most popular among the fans. She stated this one occasion to be the ‘Manniversary’ of her career during an interview with IGN,
“Wow, yes, it would have been around this time that I started it. Whoa. Either time is flying or, I don’t know, maybe it even feels shorter than a year. It’s been crazy. It’s been go go go go. So many things have happened that it’s sometimes hard to sit back and realize ‘Well, this has gone alright for itself,” Becky Lynch said.

The number one draft pick for the 2019 edition also commented on the journey that she had during her title run. Becky Lynch states that she had so many things going around her on a limited timespan that she could barely sink all of those in. But one thing she realized was the progress of her career and she can still go further to break down the ceiling,
“It’s all been incredible. I’ve been fortunate enough to have done so many firsts, but it’s very hard to sit back and let it all sink in. When we were filming the trailer for [WWE 2K20], it was the first time I sat back and realized what the magnitude was of main eventing WrestleMania this year. And what it had done for me. And it sat in me for a second on the set, because I never usually have time to think about it. Because after WrestleMania there was media. And then there was RAW. And then SmackDown. And then my parents came back to my house. So I never had time to digest any of it.”
