The Sun Sport recently interviewed WWE Superstar Becky Lynch, who discussed this year’s Royal Rumble and more. Below are some highlights.

Her thoughts on the 2019 women’s Royal Rumble: “I’ll say it like it is, the women’s Rumble was better. We’ve got incredible female athletes at the moment with wonderful characters that people can get invested in and care about. Everybody’s trying to step it up, especially since The Man came around, and I love that – I love the competition. Current and future, absolutely” [Becky said about only present and future stars competing in the women’s Rumble match].

Becky Lynch on what’s happening with the women’s division: “I didn’t want anything given to us on a token gesture basis. I wanted it to be earned and to be undeniable. I wanted it to be something the fans wanted – not something the fans were told that they wanted. I wanted it to be organic and that’s what we’re having right now. That makes me more proud than anything.”
