Becky Lynch has an undeniable habit of homaging pop-culture with her ring attire: remember when she resembled Aloy from the video game Horizon Zero Dawn last year?

However, her most prominent and enduring tip of the hat to date is her signature steampunk-style goggles and orange hair combo, which she debuted in NXT around the time of Mad Max: Fury Road's release in mid-2015.

This is significant because, of course, Riley Keough's character, Capable, has the same striking get-up in the movie, and Lynch's look is way too similar to be a coincidence.

Though Lynch doesn't style herself as emanating from the same post-apocalyptic hellhole as depicted in the film, she's nevertheless kept the neat goggles and eye-catching hair colour ever since.
