10 Things We Learned From WWE 24: Becky Lynch

9. Her Brother Thought She Was “God Awful”

Becky's sibling Richy was the one who asked his little sister if she'd like to chum along to Finn's modest training school. She jumped at the chance, and Rich later wondered if he'd made the right decision; when he saw Bex trying to do anything in-ring, he was mortified.

In his own words, she was "God awful".

As uncoordinated as they come, Lynch couldn't do anything remotely athletic. This is shown in some majestic footage that sees Becky (dressed like Lita back in 2002) aiming some rotten kicks at a local lad. Bálor says she wasn't good, which is understandable given her newness to wrestling. As if to hammer home the point, Becky herself says she was 'dreadful".

She wouldn't give up though, and it was that steely determination that caught everyone's eye. They ended up admiring her spirit, and that same hardheadedness becomes a crucial part of the documentary throughout it's hour-long run.
