7 Real Reasons WWE Turned Becky Lynch Heel

5. SmackDown's Selection Of Heels Is Unimpressive

Becky's turn on Charlotte was probably the biggest angle to come out of SummerSlam. Given that Carmella is going to get her rematch against Charlotte next week on SmackDown instead of at Hell in a Cell, it's clear WWE are moving quick to move the 'Princess of Staten Island' out of the title picture as quickly as possible to focus on the Charlotte/Becky situation. Beyond Hell in a Cell, I would expect this feud to go well into the early winter, with clashes at Super Show-Down, Evolution, and even Survivor Series as strong possibilities.

And frankly, this is what they should do. Aside from Charlotte and Becky having a long, personal history... really look at what heels they have on SmackDown. You've got Carmella, who we've all seen is a total bust. You've got Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville, who are barely on television. The IIconics, who are just okay (and no, looking beautiful while having a good-looking suplex does not mean Peyton is great. If that were the only criteria, Alicia Fox would be a regular contender for the RAW Women's Championship).

Unless you wanna see those programs, turning Becky Lynch heel was a necessity, as that has the best chance of delivering quality matches.
