10 Things We Learned From WWE 24: Becky Lynch

6. Mattel P*ssed Her Off

That's one super-p*ssed off 'Man' in the pic above, and with good reason.

In the doc, Becky tells how Mattel surprised everyone with some commemorative dolls during a press event before WrestleMania 33. They wanted to celebrate what Charlotte Flair and Sasha Banks had achieved the prior year at 'Mania 32, but they completely forgot about Becky.

She'd been part of that Triple Threat match for the Women's Title, but she didn't get a doll. At that point, a frustrated Lynch knew she wasn't the media darling of the female ranks, and she realised she'd have to work doubly hard to gain their respect. That was fine, she was up for the fight.

Someone at the toy company should've clued their superiors into this oversight though. It was embarrassing, and not only for Bex. Her friends Charlotte and Sasha had to smile for the cameras as their pal sternly looked away. How awkward.
