#7 Becky Lynch the Irish dancer

WWE loves their stereotypes, especially when it comes to Superstars from different countries. Following in the footsteps of Finlay and Sheamus, it seems that WWE wanted to point out the fact that Becky Lynch was Irish in a major way.

Becky made her NXT debut back in June 2014 in a match against Summer Rae. Becky came out to the ring in emerald green ring attire and even treated the NXT Universe to her version of Irish dancing to her Irish entrance theme.

It seemed like a little bit too much and whilst Becky continues to be proud of where she came from, she is probably happy that WWE decided to allow her to change her gimmick a few weeks later because she probably wouldn't have got very far in WWE as an Irish stereotype.
