For much of 2018, Ronda Rousey dominated the WWE women's division, as she defeated Alexa Bliss at SummerSlam to win the RAW Women's Championship. She held the for a record 231 days until she suffered her first loss in the main event of WrestleMania 35.
On that night Becky Lynch defeated Rousey and Charlotte Flair to win both the RAW and SmackDown Women's Titles. The Man has gone on to overtake The Baddest Woman on the Planet as the longest-reigning RAW Women's Champion in company history.

During Lynch's 232 day reign on top so far, she's defeated the likes of Charlotte, Bayley, Sasha Banks, Natalya, Kairi Sane, Nikki Cross, and Lacey Evans. She's also shared the ring with legends and graced the covers of magazines and video games.
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
Lynch became the first WWE Superstar on the cover of ESPN The Magazine, and the first female cover girl of the WWE 2K video game. Both had to be great moments for her, but for the sake of this list let's look at her top moments inside the squared circle.
#5 Becky Lynch takes an 'End of Days'
The Becky Lynch & Seth Rollins power couple storyline wasn't everyone's cup of tea, but it did culminate in a pretty entertaining Extreme Rules Mixed Tag Match at Extreme Rules. Lynch and Rollins put the RAW Women's Championship and the Universal Championship on the line against Lacey Evans and Baron Corbin. If either had lost, they would both have dropped their titles.
This a match where Lynch would prove her toughness. Early on in the bout, she would take a flying chair right off her forehead which left a golf ball-sized welt. Then later, she got another shot to the head when she was hit with one of the most protected finishers in WWE.
Towards the end of the match, Corbin would grab Lynch from behind and plant her with an 'End of Days'. That made Rollins go crazy on Corbin, hitting him with several stomps before pinning him to retain the championships.
#4 Becky Lynch returns to NXT, takes on Rhea Ripley
Rhea Ripley may have been one of the star performers over Survivor Series weekend, but last Wednesday night belonged to The Man. Becky Lynch returned to NXT for the first time in 4 years and was greeted by a raucous crowd. Lynch continued the invasion angle by making a surprise appearance at Full Sail University.
She called out both Shayna Baszler and Bayley but instead was greeted by the former NXT UK Women's Champion Rhea Ripley.
The match may have ended in a no contest, but it was a great appetizer for what could be a highly entertaining feud down the line. For me though, the best part was the promo. Lynch was able to return to the one place where she was never able to win gold, touting her accomplishments like a proud alumnus.
The lone Horsewoman to never win the NXT Title stood tall in the center of the ring and held the RAW Women's Championship up high, and she scored the highest rated segment of the Wednesday Night Wars in the process.
#3 Becky Lynch and Sasha Banks tear it up inside Hell in a Cell
Many in the WWE Universe believed this would be the match where Lynch drops the RAW Women's Title. Sasha Banks had recently made her long-awaited return to the company and seemed poised to capture her 5th Championship. It was not to be though, as The Man would once again come out on top.
This was one of the more physical and innovative matches in Lynch's career and her current title run. The chair spot in the corner of the cage was a thing of beauty.
It may not be the top moment, but so far, it is without a doubt her best match since she won the RAW Women's Championship.
#2 The Man and The Rock school King Corbin
There are not many performers more iconic than The Rock, and for a current star, it may not get any bigger than sharing the ring with The Great One.
The Rock doesn't make many appearances on WWE programming anymore, so when he does, it's a big deal. WWE brought in all the stars for the SmackDown premiere on Fox, including the man who's catchphrase became the name of the show.
Make no mistake about it though, when The Rock's music hit, it was already clear who the new star of the company is. WWE built the entire opening of the show around Becky Lynch. The WWE 2K20 cover girl was given the grand tour through the Fox Studios by Michael Strahan on the pre-show, then became the first Superstar to jerk the curtain on Friday Night SmackDown.
Not only did The Man get to share the ring with The Rock, but The Great One practically requested it, according to my Sportskeeda colleague Tom Colohue.
There was instant chemistry between them. They roasted King Corbin on the mic, before laying the smack-down on him.
It was an immensely fun segment that accomplished two things, firstly it proved that no spotlight is too big for Lynch, as The Man can hold her own on the mic even when sharing the ring with one of the best trash talkers in the company history. Secondly, Lynch collected her debt for the aforementioned End of Days.
#1 The Man wins all the gold at WrestleMania 35
We can over analyze the ending to the match all day long, but it doesn't change the magnitude of the moment. This was the first-ever all women's main event in the 35-year history of WrestleMania.
It was a match that Becky Lynch was never supposed to be in, a match that she likely wouldn't have been in had she not been pulled out of Survivor Series due to a concussion, and a match she would have never been in without the undying support from her adoring fan base.
Everything had to happen exactly the way it did for this moment to come true. Lynch pinning Ronda Rousey to become Becky 2 Belts might not be your favorite moment in her rise to the top, but it's the most important to The Man herself. This was the moment all her dreams came true, and you can't top that.
As Lynch said in the video above, it was only just the beginning. She may have dropped the SmackDown Women's Championship to Charlotte at Money in the Bank, but she still holds that red belt high every Monday Night on RAW.
