Becky Lynch Comments On Being Compared To ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin, If She Is A Heel Now

Becky Lynch was recently interviewed by the Las Cruces Sun News. This was in order to promote the upcoming Smackdown live event in New Mexico. Becky spoke on a few topics during the interview. This included people comparing her to ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin and if she is a heel now. Below are some of the highlights.

Becky on Jim Ross and others comparing her to ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin:

“That means the world. You can’t get a better comparison than being compared to Stone Cold Steve Austin. He’s one of the greatest. He’s so smart in how he did things, his reactions and how we would sell things. Just his charisma and how we would talk. It was impossible to not want to cheer that guy because he was doing what we all wanted to do. None of us want to take crap from anybody and I think that’s the same thing Becky Lynch is doing right now too. That’s the highest honor you could possibly be given.”

On if she is a heel now:

“Whatever I am doing right now, I am loving it. Whatever this is, I love it.

Just in general, people around the world … you try and be the nice person, always. Everybody. And I think this is so relatable. For the most part, people are generally good and want to do the right thing. And sometimes, it just backfires on you. My dad used to always tell me no good deed goes unpunished. And I think that’s what you’re seeing with Becky right now, that she’s always done the right thing and it hasn’t gotten her where she wants it. And now she’s had enough and she’s saying ‘I don’t care who’s in my way.’

I left home at 16, traveled the world and slept on people’s couches. I came with a goal and I haven’t gotten that because I have been too focused on doing the right thing always when other people aren’t. That’s what we’re seeing and she’s had enough … she’s not letting them be an obstacle anymore.”

On a related note, Charlotte Flair explained why she would prefer to face Becky Lynch at Evolution rather than a returning legend.
