10 Most Surreal Wrestling Moments In Recent History

1. The Man Becomes The Mum

Since WrestleMania, there has been one key absence on RAW - Becky Lynch, the most over female superstar in WWE history.

Now we know why The Man has been off our screens for the past month, and we couldn't be happier for her.

Watching Lynch's tearful abdication of the RAW women's title, and her celebration with Asuka, was the most heartwarming moment of any TV show since the arenas emptied. An uplifting example of real-life blending with an ongoing storyline, this was the perfect way for The Man to end her historic reign. Becky Lynch got herself over to a truly groundbreaking extent and had already beaten every viable challenger in the company. With nothing left to prove, it makes perfect sense for her to go out on a high and enjoy the next chapter in her life.

Watching such an intensely emotional moment play out in an empty arena was, even by the standard of the past two months, more than a little strange. If any event deserved a standing ovation it was this one. That being said we can't wait for the moment when, long after the lockdown has lifted, The Man makes her triumphant return to WWE and blows the damn roof off.

To Becky, Asuka, and every other wrestler who has worked through the current crisis, we can only offer a sincere "Thank you". This period would have been far worse without each and every one of you.
