5 gifted wrestlers WWE refused to push but were eventually forced to

#3 WWE Superstar Becky Lynch

While she was one of the faces of WWE's Women's Revolution, Becky Lynch was initially in the shadow of Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks, and Bayley. Lynch seemed set to have a moment in the spotlight when she earned a shot for the SmackDown Women's Championship against Carmella at SummerSlam 2018.

However, WWE had a change of heart and put the title on Charlotte Flair, who was added to the match at the last minute. This triggered a heel turn for Lynch, who found her groove and proceeded to win the title. The two stars had an incredible feud as the Irish star established herself as the hottest commodity in pro-wrestling.

The Man had a classic feud with Flair before laying the groundwork for a feud with Ronda Rousey. Lynch's star burned bright throughout the year, which culminated in her defeating Flair and Rousey in the main event of WrestleMania 35. This was the first women's match to headline WWE's biggest show of the year.
