10 Amazing Comparisons Between Becky Lynch And Stone Cold Steve Austin
10. Winning & Losing
1996: Stone Cold Steve Austin defeats Savio Vega at WrestleMania, but his victory is a Pyrrhic one, particularly in the interminable feud with the 'Caribbean Legend'. The match is a justifiably-forgotten bore, but the pair do a far better job at May's Beware Of Dog 2. Austin loses a Caribbean Strap match but implies that he meant to in order to shed himself of manager Ted DiBiase. His King Of The Ring win is the first positive return from his decision to cut the cord. He wasn't initially earmarked for it, but got the nod after planned winner Triple H was removed entirely.
2018: After losing out on a Money In The Bank golden ticket in a last gasp battle with Alexa Bliss, Becky Lynch becomes Number One contender to the SmackDown Live Women's Championship with a non-title win over then-Champion Carmella. The win looks assured for Becky until her best friend Charlotte is also added. 'The Queen' is ultimately successful, but Lynch's loss triggers a stunning post-match heel turn. Buoyed by the switch (and some electric post-turn promos), an even-more-over-than-before Becky defeats Charlotte just a month later in their singles rematch.
