Despite all the evidence to the contrary, Becky Lynch has denied she is a heel in an interview with the New York Daily News.
Lynch returned at SummerSlam, where she defeated SmackDown Women’s Champion Biance Belair in a matter of seconds to win the belt, a piece of booking widely condemned by fans.
Lynch denied her win over Bianca was an act of heelish cunning, and instead feels like she simply outsmarted her opponent.
“I’ve just come back and now I feel like suddenly there’s this conversation that I’m not doing things the right way, but I don’t know what anybody expects me to do. Do you want me to come back and toy with Bianca and give her more of a chance to look like she’s got an opportunity? Or would I come back, knowing that I haven’t done this in a while, and be smart about it and blindside her? I just did what an intelligent person would do. If you haven’t been wrestling in a long time, then you’ve been strategizing. You’ve been strategizing because you haven’t been in the ring with this person, so then you are going to do something different. You are going to catch them off guard. And now suddenly I’m the bad guy because I came back even better than ever? I don’t really understand this talk about me being a heel. I haven’t changed. I just got smarter.”
Lynch will appear on tonight’s SmackDown in Madison Square Garden to sign a contract for her match with Bianca Belair at Extreme Rules. Hopefully this match will last longer than 5 seconds.
PWInsider recently reported that Becky is being lined up as the top heel on SmackDown, but clearly Becky hasn’t read those reports.
