3. Becky Lynch Returns Home To Charlottes Music
As one of three returning hometown heroes, you would expect Becky Lynch to make her entrance to her own theme music, to the roar of the crowd. Instead, after the special guest referee Paige, Brie Bella and Alicia Fox had made their way to the ring, Charlottes music hit and as the WWE Divas Champion made her way to the stage, Becky followed behind her. Becky still got a huge pop, but fans weren't really prepared for it as they were waiting for her to come out by herself. They really missed out on what could have been a monumental moment with Lynch making her entrance, on her own, for the first time in her home city. It seemed like Becky came out with Charlotte in order to get the champion over with the crowd, but the music felt like a slap in the face. Whats worse is that after getting the submission victory over Brie Bella, Beckys music played for a short time before being switched back to Charlottes. Yes, shes the champion, but everyone in the arena, and backstage, knew who the most important woman in that match was, and although it was fun, and Paige did great heel work as referee, Becky could have been used so much better. Despite this, she did have huge fan support, deservedly so, and it was truly great to see her soak in the adulation from the home crowd. With a bit of luck, Becky will be able to return some day soon with the Divas Championship around her waist, and with her own ring music. Is that too much to ask for?
