WWE Rumor Roundup: Truth regarding rumor about Sheamus and Becky Lynch, babyface turn planned for top heel - 22nd September 2019

#2. Sheamus clears the air about a rumor regarding how Becky Lynch got into the WWE

It's been speculated for a very long time that Sheamus was the man who got Becky Lynch into the WWE and while it may not be completely true, there is a certain degree of legitimacy to that claim.

During a recent interview with Express, Sheamus opened up about the role he played in Becky Lynch's WWE signing. While the 4-time WWE Champion did admit that he got her in touch with all the right people in the company, he clarified that it was Lynch who worked hard towards finalizing the contract.

“I think I got her in touch with whoever it was, I got her in touch with the right people. I just made a connection, she did it all herself. Sometimes things can get misconstrued or whatever like I got her in WWE...That’s not true at all, but I gave her the information and passed it on until she got the opportunity."

Sheamus went on to praise the current RAW Women's Champion and highlighted Lynch's efforts in making 'The Man' gimmick a major success.

“She did it, she took it. I always knew Becky was a phenomenal talent, very, very talented [and] very, very good at making the most of every situation. When that Becky Lynch revolution started, the whole ‘The Man’ thing, that was just her. They weren’t doing anything with her but on Twitter, on social media, she just vented, she said what she wanted to say and it just started picking up steam.

She’s a really good friend of mine and we’ve always had conversations; she asks me advice, I ask her sometimes. I think it’s phenomenal, I think it’s well-deserved, I think she’s very, very smart [and] a very intelligent person. She knows exactly what she’s doing and she can back it up in the ring so she deserves everything she gets.” H/t Credit: Express.co.uk
