5 WWE Superstars who benefited from losing a match

#2 Becky Lynch (vs Charlotte Flair and Carmella at SummerSlam 2018)

Becky Lynch

At WWE WrestleMania 34, Becky Lynch wasn't event featured on the main card. She competed in the first-ever WrestleMania Women's Battle Royal, in a losing effort. By the time SummerSlam 2018 arrived, fans had gotten tired of Lynch not getting a push. At the event, Becky lost a WWE SmackDown Women's title Triple Threat match to Charlotte Flair and Carmella. No one had any idea that this loss would kick off one of the biggest pushes in modern history.

Becky turned heel by attacking Charlotte after the match, and was met with a loud chorus of cheers from the fans. The fans didn't forget to boo Charlotte out of the building, even though she was a babyface. Lynch soon donned the persona of "The Man", and went on to become the most popular Superstar in all of WWE. An injury that she suffered at the hands of Nia Jax prevented her from taking on Ronda Rousey at Survivor Series 2018, and this only made the fans cheer for her more.

Months later, Becky defeated both Charlotte and Rousey in the first-ever Women's main event in WrestleMania history, thus becoming a double Women's Champion.
