10 New Directions For WWE After Clash In Italy 2026
9. Becky Lynch Showing Babyface Humility
Hey, it could happen.
Becky is a strong heel, but she’s also a legacy star and may show some humility to put Sol over as the future via a promo on TV. That’d lead to a babyface turn as she realises being a snarling villain doesn’t work for her anymore. It's either that or they finally get referee Jessika Carr in the ring so she and Lynch can thrash out differences that spotlight every one of Becky's matches.
That wouldn't be a bad option, and Carr does have the in-ring chops to go as a one off opponent for Lynch. However, the more likely scenario is that fans start to slowly accept Becky again and turn her babyface. She's a pretty rare breed in that she can plug any gaps WWE's writing team requires her to. Need a good villain? Call Lynch. Want a veteran who can elicit cheers? Turn her face and go with that.
It's also really handy to have someone who isn't adverse to doing jobs in the women's division. There's been far too much backstage drama in recent times between the likes of Rhea Ripley, Jade Cargill and select others. Meanwhile, 'Big Time Becks' just goes about her business trying to put on good matches and tell fun stories.
A wee splash of humility would go a long, long way. Lynch is far removed from the hard-nosed days of 'The Man', but dropping her Women's IC Title to a rising star like Ruca could be the 'come to Jesus meeting' she needs as a character.
