5. 'Big Time Bex'

Remember when Becky Lynch wore that crown and oversized shades combo a few years ago? It didn't really fit her 'Man' gimmick at all, and that sucked 'cause WWE were still occasionally trying to present Becky as some renegade, hard-nosed babyface. Those days are gone, at least for now.

She's 'Big Time Bex' now, and it's working.

Credit must also go the way of Bianca Belair. She's doing a good job of matching up to Lynch's star power, and she's coming into her own on the mic after months upon months of dreary 'happy to be here' promos. Belair's confidence was clear during this week's contract signing, but so was Becky's arrogance.

The whole bit only existed so Bex could heel on the crowd and deflect heat onto them. "I left my baby girl at home for you", she bleated. Meanwhile, Bianca sat there shaking her head and looking forward to a title rematch at Extreme Rules.

Top characterisation.
