#6 How Becky Lynch won the Championship
Despite being one of the hardest working female wrestlers in the WWE and one of the key players in the current women’s division to steer us into the future of women’s wrestling, Becky Lynch’s individual accomplishments on the main roster have left little to be desired despite being the first ever WWE Smackdown Women’s Champion.
If you add Lynch’s recent change in character in SummerSlam, anything other than Becky Lynch walking out of Hell in a Cell without the Championship would have been a major mistake, so at least WWE got the result right.
The issue lies with how Lynch won the Championship. While I don’t believe that every match needs to end with a finishing move, and the occasional fluke is always appreciated, this particular match ended very randomly.
Charlotte attempted a spear and Becky countered it with a pin, which Charlotte was unable to get out of. Considering that during the match Lynch’s sole focus was on Charlotte’s hand/arm, it was a bit of a disappointment that they had to end the match with a lucky counter.
Despite The Queen of Pay-per-views has a reputation to protect, Becky Lynch is a worthy contender in her own right and should have won in a much more convincing manner.
