7. Becky Lynch - Face

Becky Lynch's character has really embraced the 'biggest star in the women's division' moniker to a comical amount with her Connor McGregor-esque heel antics, but it is true - Becky Lynch is WWE's biggest star in the women's division. At one point, she was THE biggest star in the company, regardless of gender.

It is certainly hard to capture lightning in a bottle twice, hence why Lynch has tried to reinvent 'The Man' into 'Big Time Becks', however, Lynch was brought back as a heel at her own request, as she wanted to try something new, which is admirable. But, Lynch just works better as a face, she always has.

Lynch as a heel just feels awkward and strange as she is a person that fans just want to support and not in the way in which modern wrestling fans cheer heels and boo faces because its cool, fans just genuinely want to cheer Lynch, no matter her allegiance. Hence, why a return to 'The Man' character isn't entirely necessary, but a return to Lynch being an all-out face is. She is a star, let the fans cheer her without having her tear them down and Becky Lynch, as a character, will be right back where she belongs instantly.
