A wide-eyed kid, Becky Lynch was in awe of performers like Hulk Hogan and The Ultimate Warrior. Upon growing a little older, the young girl who had previously enjoyed pro wrestling suddenly found herself drifting away from WWF programming. It wouldn't be until the 'Attitude Era' that Becky was sucked right back in.

Lynch's brother remained a fan even when his sister didn't watch wrestling. One day, Becky happened to walk past and see Mick Foley cutting a promo inside the ring. Instantly, without even knowing exactly why, she was hooked again. Foley's Commissioner character was entertaining to Lynch, as was his work as Mankind.

Suddenly, Lynch asked her brother to let her know any time Foley was on TV. This opened her back up to wrestling and she became an avid fan once more. Had it not been for Mick's presence and ability on the microphone, Becky isn't sure she ever would have started watching again.

Now, Lynch works alongside Foley in WWE. It's amazing to think that may never have happened had her brother not encouraged his sister.
