Becky Lynch was one of the fastest rising stars in the women's pro wrestling game when tragedy struck.

During a match, she suffered a severe head injury, so bad that it damaged her eight cranial nerve. Lynch experienced difficulties with her vision, ringing in the ears, dizziness and nausea for a long time before recovering.

However, even after her physical wounds healed, she was struck with an all too familiar condition, PTSD. Lynch admits that her fear of failure was just as big as her fear of another injury and that she spent seven years trying to get herself mentally prepared to step back into the ring.

Overcoming a mental illness is often more challenging than overcoming a physical one. The fact that Lynch was able to do so proves that she has the toughness of character and mental fortitude to deserve her spot as the top star of WWE.
