Nigeria’s Glazia magazine named Becky Lynch as one of the Top Female Game-Changers of the 21st Century. The WWE Superstar thereafter took to Twitter this week to react to the accolade.
The Women’s History issue included the “list of ten women from across the globe who have broken barriers from the early 2000s till now, and made some game-changing moves in their own right.”
Becky Lynch has been on the list along with United States Vice President Kamala Harris, World Trade Organization Director Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Miss Nigeria Shatu Garko, Indian naval officer Radhika Menon, former Miss World Agbani Darego, former U.S. First Lady Michelle Obama, climate change activist Greta Thunberg, African businesswoman Mo Abubdu, and Nigerian policewoman/boxer Mary Abbey.
“Becky Lynch is an Irish professional wrestler and also the first woman to win Wrestlemania’s first ever all-female event. In 2019, Lynch became the first woman to hold Smackdown Women’s Championship and Raw women’s championship simultaneously. Lynch would go on to become a four-time SmackDown Women’s Champion. Lynch also stands for equalism and women empowerment in every sector,” the magazine stated of the top Raw superstar.

The below quote from Becky Lynch has also been used by the magazine,
“With women empowerment and women coming together, it’s not about being better than the guys or whatever. It’s not just about collaboration; it’s about being equal people and having more of a highlight on women’s athletics, and just women being equal in every aspect.”

As noted above, Becky Lynch responded to the honor and wrote the following on Twitter, “So very cool to be named alongside these amazing women. We rely on each other to change the game for all.” Her husband and another top Raw Superstar, Seth Rollins also responded to the magazine nod with a “Chef’s Kiss” GIF.

Becky Lynch dropped the RAW Women’s Title to Bianca Belair at WrestleMania 38 on April 2nd which marked her first loss for the red brand title since Wrestlemania 35. We haven’t seen her on TV since the loss at ‘Mania 38 but she’d promised to make a strong comeback when the time’s right.
