5 reasons why Becky Lynch is the MVP of the WWE women's division

Becky Lynch lost the WWE NXT women's championship to Lyra Valkyria on Night One of Halloween Havoc, ending her reign at 42 days. The Man received widespread praise thereafter for putting over her countrywoman in a spectacular match that's likely to elevate the latter's career. Lynch was also lauded for bringing more eyes to the NXT women's division and underutilized main roster women while being champion.

This is the latest impressive notch on the WrestleMania main eventer's belt, and will further state her case for being the most valuable player in the division. This particular statement has been hotly debated for years, with the likes of Charlotte Flair, Asuka, and Bayley all receiving shouts. While all these titans of the women's revolution have strong cases, Big Time Becks might just have the edge.

Here are five reasons why Becky Lynch should be considered the MVP of the WWE women's division

#5: Becky Lynch's work-rate is arguably second to none in the WWE women's division

Becky Lynch's husband, Seth Rollins, has famously proclaimed himself the "workhorse" of WWE on many occasions. While nobody can doubt the Visionary's dedication to fulfilling his schedule, The Man is just as, if not more, hardworking. Lynch has been an ever-present on the product for almost a decade, operating at a high level and managing to stay relevant with fans.

Very few women on the company's roster can claim to have worked as many shows as Big Time Becks, even after she had a baby. In fact, she has often been the backbone of RAW, rarely getting the time off afforded to the likes of Charlotte Flair. She has shown a mix of commitment and sustained excellence that few in the division can claim to match.

#4. Becky Lynch's versatility makes her arguably the greatest asset in WWE's Women's locker room

Think of the main actors in WWE's women's division over the past decade. Who has main evented WrestleMania? The likes of Charlotte Flair, Bianca Belair, Sasha Banks, and Ronda Rousey. Who has been an ever-present workhorse barring injury layoffs? The likes of Natalya, Asuka and Liv Morgan. Who has been used to elevate younger stars? The likes of Asuka, Flair, and Bayley.

Now riddle me this: Which female superstar excels in all these roles and any other that are entrusted to her, and does so at a consistently high level? Becky Lynch was central to the women's revolution as one of the "Four Horsewomen," bringing the movement to a head at WrestleMania 35 alongside Flair and Rousey.

She has since used her star power to elevate the likes of Bianca Belair and Liv Morgan, re-establish legends like Trish Stratus, and showcase forgotten talents like Tegan Nox. Opening, mid-card, or main event match, she always makes a mark. Her versatility across the card has arguably made her the most crucial driver of the division's growth, giving her a strong claim to be named MVP.

#3. Becky Lynch's ability to bring the best out of others has been a blessing to WWE's women's division

Many WWE Superstars can stake the claim to the title "Best in the World" (no, that's not a CM Punk tease). The ability to put on a good match, subjective as that is, is the bread and butter of their trade, and a rightful source of pride. However, the ability to bring the best out of one's opponents is somewhat of a lost art today, which is why Becky Lynch is so important to the women's division.

Arguably, no other Superstar can touch Lynch when it comes to covering up opponents' weaknesses and highlighting their strengths. The proof? Big Time Becks has been part of arguably Ronda Rousey's, Trish Stratus's, Lita's, Bianca Belair's, Liv Morgan's, Lyra Valkyria's, and Tiffany Stratton's best feuds and/or matches in the company over the past five years.

Her value to their careers can not be understated.

#2. Becky Lynch's promo ability is on par with the very best in WWE

Is Becky Lynch the best female WWE Superstar ever on promos? Many would argue so. Lynch has grown leaps and bounds from the timid albeit lovable underdog Irish Lass Kicker to the uber-confident, aura-oozing Big Time Becks over the past seven years, and her promo ability has been key.

The Man has become so good that she has been trusted to hold her own in promo segments with Triple H, Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, and John Cena. She has not felt out of place with any of these legendary talkers, and has never been "cooked" on the mic by any fellow female superstar. When it comes to cutting promos, Lynch is definitely one of the MVPs of the women's division.

#1. Becky Lynch arguably has the most star power in WWE's women's division

Becky Lynch is the first woman to ever win a WrestleMania main event. She is a two-time (and former longest-reigning) RAW Women's Champion and a four-time (and the inaugural) SmackDown Women's Champion, and the only woman to hold both simultaneously. She is a Royal Rumble winner, Grand Slam champion, ESPY Nominee, and two-time WWE female Superstar of the Year.

Outside of all those accolades, she is arguably the greatest organic success story the company has had since Daniel Bryan. Her meteoric rise in 2018 made her one of the company's top merchandise and ratings movers, and she has consistently made compelling even the most mundane of storylines. By any metric with which the value to the company is calculated, The Man is always at or near the top.

This is why she is the MVP of WWE's women's division.
