Professional wrestling, a worldwide spectacle, has drawn athletes from diverse origins. Becky Lynch, who began her journey in Ireland and expanded her career across Canada, Japan, and the U.S., believes that wrestlers share at least one common trait regardless of their background.
Reflecting on her path, Lynch said on "First We Feast," she initially joined wrestling training to bring order to her life and avoid trouble. This experience improved her school performance and overall life, not because she aimed to become a wrestler, but because she found a supportive community. She discovered that dedication leads to improvement and noted that wrestlers might have "a little bit of a screw loose," a trait that unites them all.
Lynch described the camaraderie in wrestling as diverse people coming together, sharing jokes, having fun, and supporting one another—emphasizing that "crack" means fun, not drugs. Her passion for wrestling began in childhood watching it with her brother. They later reconnected with WWE during the Attitude Era, with Lynch specifically inspired by Mick Foley’s intense promos. To her, the art of storytelling in wrestling was more compelling than the physical matches.
