Becky Lynch is currently a top star in WWE. She main evented WrestleMania 35 as well several other pay-per-view events during her career. There's no doubt that she'll go down as one of the greatest female Superstars in the company's history.

From portraying an Irish dancer to becoming The Man, Becky Lynch changed the landscape of the entire industry and created history along the way. If it wasn't for the late great Dusty Rhodes, however, The Man wouldn't have become who she is today.

The American Dream himself was a top wrestler during his wrestling days, and after his time in the ring was over, Dusty worked as a backstage booker and producer in NXT. He inspired and motivated a lot of young talent, including Becky Lynch.

Lynch's initial days on the developmental brand were difficult, as she struggled to do things right. Because of this, she was about to be fired, but Dusty Rhodes refused to let it happen. Becky thanked the late legend for saving her career while speaking to Kristine Leahy.

"I'd probably just cry and say, 'Thank you Dusty', cause I don't know if I'd still have a job if it wasn't for Dusty.”

Thanks to Dusty Rhodes, The Man remained in WWE and went on to become a major star.
