#1 Becky Lynch rules the Women's division after turning heel a year ago

The Man
At SummerSlam 2018, Becky Lynch lost a Triple Threat Match for the SmackDown Live Women's title, also featuring Carmella and Charlotte Flair. After the match, Lynch turned heel on Flair and thus kicked off one of the greatest success stories in WWE history.

The fans were behind Becky more than ever, and there wasn't the slightest chance that they would boo her despite the heel turn. She soon embraced the persona of "The Man", a ruthless anti-hero character.
This change propelled her to the top of WWE, and she went on to win the headline match of WrestleMania 35, in a history-making moment. Lynch still reigns over the Women's division, will face Natalya at SummerSlam with the Raw Women's title on the line, and her dream run seems far from being over.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
