#5 Becky turns heel
An outside bet for the finish of this Sunday’s match could be a heel turn for former Smackdown Women’s Champion, Becky Lynch, costing her team the victory.
It seems quite unlikely, but then again, it would make sense considering her current standing on the show. Lynch was the first woman drafted to Smackdown Live after last year’s brand split and was expected to lead the division. However, she has faded into the background recently while the likes of Naomi and Alexa Bliss have been at the forefront.
The same could be said of this current feud, Becky had been somewhat of an afterthought for the most part and could use this as a catalyst for a shocking heel turn at Backlash. Whether she aligns with the ‘Welcoming Committee’ or stays independent, a villainous Becky Lynch would interesting to see and would freshen up her character.
