Balor gets some credit for her wrestling ability, but Lynch doesn't need to be in a ring to do damage. She's a gym fanatic and dedicated student of fighting and athletics. Anyone who has seen her apply a submission hold will be unsurprised to learn that she holds a brown belt in submission wrestling, a skill that allows her to expertly apply moves that look immeasurably painful. During her time in NXT, and particularly during her recent matches with Bayley, she has shown off a diverse array of holds that make her stand out as a ring technician, and when she makes her opponents tap out, it's not hard for fans to understand why the match has ended. Lynch's victories, as a result, have come across as realistic and convincing, which is one of the reasons she has lately been on the rise.
