10 Times WWE Salvaged A Doomed Superstar

10. Becky Lynch

Speaking of 'The Man'. Where better to start than with a character who had seemingly hit her glass ceiling as the loveable 'Lasskicker' on SmackDown Live in 2018?

Becky Lynch had been quietly establishing herself as one of the true crowd favourites over on the blue brand ever since the 2016 brand split.

Yet, despite this obvious popularity, Lynch still never seemed to find herself in the kind of positions afforded to WWE's other talented women in the form of Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks and Alexa Bliss.

She could wrestle, had a great look and definitely had the makings of something quite special. But, she lacked one vital component needed in order to get over as a real star in the eyes of the big boss.

Attitude.

So, when all appeared to be lost and Lynch's forever doomed character looked set to be overshadowed once more by Flair at the Biggest Party of the Summer, she showed her true colours and laid a beating down on The Queen in front of a delighted live audience.

Regardless of the fact that the plan was obviously for Lynch to turn heel after the attack, WWE stumbled upon their newest top star and a once hapless talent became one of the biggest names in wrestling thanks to her convincing shift of gears from smiley goof to no-nonsense badass.
