Becky Lynch discusses her upcoming match against Rhea Ripley.
Becky Lynch won the Women's Elimination Chamber, and she is set to challenge Rhea Ripley for the Women's World Championship at WrestleMania 40. The two stars had a heated confrontation on the February 26 episode of WWE Raw, and Ripley told Lynch that Mami was always on top.
Speaking on WWE's The Bump, Becky Lynch was asked about her confrontation with Rhea Ripley on WWE Raw. Her daughter, Roux, got her attention, and Becky noted that she does it all. She stated that everyone is unbeatable until they're beaten, and she's the one who will defeat Rhea Ripley.
“This is my everything. This is what I fight for. So when I said ‘The Man’ does it all, she does it all. I’m doing this while I’m on the road 52 weeks a year, while I’m propping up the women’s division, while I’ve been making everybody better. So if you think that Rhea Ripley is unbeatable, well, everybody’s unbeatable until they’re beaten, and I’m the one to beat her," Lynch said.
Lynch was then asked about her previous comments about Ripley, when she noted that the champion might be better than her, but she had to prove that was not the case. Lynch described how she had seen Ripley's success and the way she was naturally talented, whereas she personally had to outwork everyone to get to where she was. She made it clear that she was better than ever, and she had to prove that she was better than Ripley.
“This business goes in waves, right, it’s always waves. You’re riding the momentum and then sometimes, it comes down. Sometimes, it crashes down. Then you’re waiting to catch the next one. You’re looking up while you’re in the calm of the sea, and you can see her riding this wave, and you can see everything that’s being thrown at her, and you can see how young she is and how naturally talented she is and the finesse that she possesses in the ring. You’re watching all of that, and you see how big she is, and you go, ‘Okay, well, I’m a lot smaller than that, and I’m not natural at this. I never was. But I can outwork everyone, and I do outwork everyone.’ So when you’re nearly 20 years in, kind of asking yourself, ‘Am I still the best? Am I as hungry as I was?’ The answer is, ‘Hell yeah. I’m better than ever, and I’m more hungry than ever.’ But when you’re against somebody who has all those natural abilities, you start to question yourself, especially when they didn’t come so naturally to you. But that’s the thing that I have to remind myself. It was never about being the most athletic or being a natural. It was always about heart, and passion, and work ethic, and what’s never waned. I don’t think anybody can or ever will beat me in that, and that’s the difference. But I need to prove to myself that I’m better than her," Lynch said.
