When Becky Lynch joined the main roster from NXT in the summer of 2015, it did feel like she was the odd woman out.

Unlike her fellow call ups Sasha Banks and Charlotte Flair, Lynch had never held the NXT Women's Title, with an on-going character being that she would get shots and blow it.

Moving to SmackDown in the 2016 draft was definitely the right call for the Lass Kicker, who would become the first Women's Champion as part of the blue brand.

Her time on the main roster exploded at Summerslam last year, when after coming up short in a title match, Lynch attacked Charlotte Flair.

Now calling herself The Man, Lynch has become one of WWE's most popular stars in recent years and will face Flair, and RAW Women's Champion Ronda Rousey in the main event of WrestleMania 35.
