Becky Lynch was inspired to become a wrestler after a number of fights with her brother in their back garden. The two siblings were reportedly close at a young age and would watch WWE shows together.

The RAW Women's Champion followed in her brother's footsteps when it came to stepping into the wrestling business since Richy performed under the ring name Gonzo de Mondo.

Richy considered attending a wrestling school when Lynch was just 15 years old, which lead to the star lying about her age so that she could enroll. The Man stated that she was 16 so that she could start wrestling training alongside her brother and enrolled at Finn Balor's training school in Ireland.

Lynch told ESPN that her dream beginning in the wrestling business didn't go to plan and she remembered crying about it to Balor.

"I was terrible. It was so foreign to me, I wasn't an athlete, and I was a chilled-out kid, you know? I was tough, I had never done anything like this but I just wanted to work. I remember at one stage crying to [Finn] and being like, 'I just want to be as good as any of the guys.' And he was like, 'Well, that's what I'm trying to make you do.'"
