The most over wrestler in WWE currently is The Man, Becky Lynch who is both the RAW and SmackDown Live's Women's Champion. It was at Wrestlemania 35, where the main event saw Becky reign supreme over former champs Ronda Rousey and Charlotte. Currently, Becky is rocking it in the blue brand and is in a supposed feud with Lacey Evans. Becky's love for WWE dates back to her childhood and she embarked on the journey of her wrestling career. However, during a match, the wrestler suffered a major concussion that forced the Irish lass kicker to take a hiatus from wrestling.
Post the concussion, Becky tried her hand at being a flight attendant, a stunt woman and even earned a degree in acting. She also suffered from depression as she felt like she was neglecting her first love, wrestling. "When I stepped away from it I just, I suffered from depression and always felt like I turned my back on this thing that I loved and this thing that has given me a purpose. I always felt like there was a part of me would fix it, and that part of me was this," Becky shared with People.
Eventually, Lynch contacted WWE for a tryout and she signed with the company in 2013. The rest, as they say, is history!

Becky added, "I’m really grateful for those years. At the time it was hard to see where it was going to go. Looking back I’m so grateful because I wouldn’t be where I am without having stepped away. And I also, want to have the appreciation that I do without it."
