10 Wrestlers We're Most Thankful For In 2018
1. Becky Lynch
Call her 'The Lass Kicker,' 'The Man,' 'The Champ,' or whatever else you want: Becky Lynch has become the standard-bearer for WWE's Women's Revolution, and perhaps the most vital superstar in the company today.
Everything she does is bloody brilliant. Whether it's working classic in-ring battles with Charlotte Flair, leading Team SmackDown's pre-Survivor Series invasion of Raw, spitting hot fire on the microphone, or simply swaggering down to the ring, Becky is money at the moment. The heel turn was a masterstroke. It doesn't even matter that she comes off more like a badass anti-hero, because the performances are so strong that they transcend everything else.
No wrestler has done more to grab the proverbial brass ring in 2018. Becky has raised her own standards immensely, and in doing so, she has elevated everybody else around her.
Her situation goes to show just how much talent WWE have on their hands, as they were doing precisely nothing with Lynch prior to her turn, yet she has become the most can't-miss performer in the entire company. It's almost as if thrusting popular, hard-working, talented wrestlers into the spotlight is a good booking strategy...
