10 Christmas Gifts Every WWE Fan Wants For 2019

2. Becky Lynch Getting Her Just Deserts

...please uphold the push Becky Lynch has been enjoying during the second half of 2018 and make sure 2019 is even bigger for her.

Amidst rumours of Vinnie Mac green-lighting a first-ever female headliner at WrestleMania, there's a ton of excitement surrounding Becky. She's the rough and gruff character Ronda Rousey could only dream of being right now, and she's quickly developed into WWE's most authentic anti-hero(ine).

It'd be shameful if that wasn't followed up on. Forget Rousey for a second, because Lynch is the heralded hero of the masses that WWE wanted Roman Reigns to be, and she's done it by being real. No 'Pipe Bomb' promos like CM Punk had, no unbeatable winning run, just honest-to-goodness relatability.

Whether she main events WrestleMania 35 or not, Becky should be the centrepiece of the female ranks, and she should rightly continue to be pushed as a realistic character who says and does what she feels is right. Stereotypical heel tropes be damned, she's much better than that.
