There is no denying that Becky Lynch is currently on fire. She has been garnering one of the loudest crowd reactions in all of WWE over the past few months. Becky is putting on great matches and also killing it on the microphone.
Someone who predicted Becky’s success was the legendary, Dusty Rhodes.
Dusty’s final Tweet has surfaced, where he foreshadowed Becky’s success prior to his passing:
Lynch , @NXT Star Time she be great , top 5 of last 5 years ! Max #1

In an interview with the Wrestling Compadres a few months ago, Becky spoke about Dusty’s support for her:
“Dusty Rhodes was a really important part of building up my confidence because even though I felt physically that I had never been an athlete – that is something that I have kind of learned, the athletic part was really hard for me.
But the talking ability and the ability of being a character was something that I had studied and that was something that I was constantly working at when I was outside of the pro wrestling world. Without his support I don’t know that I would be here today.”
On a related note, here were the rumored original plans for Becky vs Ronda Rousey at Survivor Series.
