11 Things We Learned From Becky Lynch On Talk Is Jericho

5. Getting Signed By WWE

Once she got her head back in the game and realized that she wanted to return to the wrestling business, Jericho asks how she went about getting signed to the company. She says that Finn Balor was nice enough to train with her in his downtime so she could get back in ring shape. After that, she attended a tryout in Birmingham, England. She had to wrestle in front of NXT officials including Norman Smiley and William Regal, She says that most of it was drills, testing how you moved in the ring, and cutting promos. Becky says she had worked on her promos a lot prior to the tryout, and she admits that she probably used too many puns in hers, then says at the end they asked her to tell her story and she shared all that she had been through, breaking down in tears by the time she was done speaking. Lynch admits that part of her regrets putting her dreams aside for the years that she did, but she also recognizes that had she not done that she wouldn't be in the position she's in with the other ladies she gets to work with.
