- You want some food?
[baby fussing]
Try it.
Some apple and blueberry.
Gotcha.
- I've been away from the game a long time,
and I left to make the most perfect human
that has ever lived.
Yeah, that's you.
You're the most perfect human that ever lived.
They asked me to come back, and ah,
it seemed like an enticing offer.
Um, come back for a championship match
Second biggest pay per view of the year.
The biggest in terms of crowd wise, that we've had all year
and that we will have all year.
I think I've been in the business long enough to know
that you don't turn those opportunities down.
- Rah.
Rah.
- But I just still yearn for that interaction with the
audience, and there's nothing else that can fill it,
no matter how fulfilling my life is with her.
Uh, I need that.
I'm like a junkie, you know, I need that aspect to, I think,
be-be my best-
self.
Growing up, I always had this yearning to go off
and do something big.
It's a very unlikely story.
I was so bad at it,
but I loved it.
For the first time in my life, I wanted to become
better at something.
- When she started in WWE,
she was fighting from the bottom,
but she's an underdog.
She's a fighter.
- I wasn't pegged to be a star.
I knew something had to change.
I knew something had to be different.
- Her goal was to go and be the best she could be worldwide.
- From Dublin, Ireland.
Becky Lynch.
- Becky is lived by the philosophy,
dare to be different and dare to trust yourself to succeed.
- Becky is a great example
of women not having to choose.
- I wanted to have a child, and I wanted to be a mother.
Nobody had gone, had a kid and then come back
as a full time worker.
But I've always been a little bit of a rebel.
I wasn't meant to be the talk of the entire industry.
But here I am.
I grew up in Dublin, Ireland, in a pretty small house
in a pretty small neighborhood.
- Rebecca was born on the 30th of January 1987.
She was due on the 30th of January and she arrived on time.
She's always been sort of accurate about everything.
- It was fun from the time she was born.
When she started crawling,
she did it with great style.
One foot like a- like a panther,
nearly, you know,
just one, nice and gently.
So it was always great fun, yeah.
- My parents were separated when I was one,
but my mom was a flight attendant, and so
it was a lot on her to be looking after two kids.
I have one older brother, Richie, and so she let my dad
move back into the house.
We did everything together as a family.
Only just my parents weren't together.
My dad was always creative,
great imagination,
anything is possible.
My mom was
You got to work.
You got to be realistic.
You got to stick to a plan,
and combined-
here I am.
And then when I was 11, that was around the time
I started drinking and smoking the wacky stuff and doing all
the things that I wasn't supposed to do
and not doing well in school.
And I decided that I should probably try
and turn my life around.
And at the time I was giant wrestling fan.
Big wrestling fan.
- They'd be on live and be on
at like 1 or 2 in the morning over here,
so we used to always stay up and watch them and that was great.
We used to kind of bounce around on my mom's bed and sort of,
you know, headlock or whatever.
- I started thinking of, you know, who do I-
who do I want to be like, you know, who do I love?
And I love like Mick Foley,
and I love his ability to tell stories.
- Mankind has achieved his dreams,
and the dream of everyone else
who's been told "You can't do it."
- And I loved Lita.
She was so cool,
and she was badass,
and she had these big shoulders.
And so I wanted to try working out to look like Lita,
but I didn't want to just go to the gym and do something
conventional because I was an unconventional kid.
But what I did discover was that they were opening a wrestling
school in Ireland, and it was about an hour away from me.
It was going to be opened up by a man named
Fergal Devitt i.e. Finn Bรกlor.
- Myself and Paul Tracey, a lifelong friend of mine and
my tag team partner at the time, decided we would open a training
school in our hometown of Bray, County Wicklow.
- You had to be 16 to join.
I was only 15 so I had to lie about my age.
- She actually told me she was doing something else.
She told me she was doing Brazilian jiu jitsu.
Is that the word?
And I thought, well, that's fine.
- She hated wrestling hated wrestling.
My dad, my dad drove me down there,
gave me the tenner so that I could do it.
- It was just a passion with her.
And then once she took it on, she took it on more
or less full time.
- I was the only girl in the place,
and you have to believe me when I say I was awful.
[background noise]
- Come on Becky.
- She was terrible.
She was uncoordinated.
She was unathletic.
She was a disaster.
[background noise]
- I'm so bad at it,
but I did not care.
For the first time in my life, I wanted to become
better at something.
- She consistently grew and developed and changed her
approach, and her look and her character and her gear
constantly questioned everything.
Second guessed everything.
- I think if there's nothing else that you can learn from
looking at Becky, it's if you stick to something and you give
it your heart and soul, you will get better.
- Once she took it up, she was more focused and
she became more focused in school.
I could see a change in her.
Still didn't like the idea that she was doing wrestling
having said that.
- I was 17 when it clicked that I could actually make
a living from this.
Supergirls Champion Rebecca Knox
- I drop out of college,
and I moved off to Canada.
That's what it's all "a-boot," right?
And then, suddenly stuff just took off.
- There is a exploder suplex by Rebecca Knox,
who again has all the talent in the world.
- Took some bookings in the UK.
I wrestled with France and I ended up getting
booked in Japan.
Every goal that I wanted was happening.
- I remember hearing rumblings
about this European girl, Rebecca Knox,
that everybody was talking about.
- Rebecca Knox just turned 19 and just how skilled
she is at this point in her career.
- And then I remember one day just-
it was gone.
- I end getting hurt in a show in Germany.
I suplexed a girl.
She landed on my face.
Got concussed,
and my eye split open.
- When she came in from Germany and I saw the injury,
it was me who said to her,
"You have to stop. This has gone too far."
- I left for seven years.
I didn't have leave wrestling at 19, but I was going up against
my mom who didn't want me wrestling,
but who-
was putting a roof over my head
'cause I couldn't support myself.
I kind of used that as an excuse to step away.
I like, "I got so in my head, I got to succeed.
I got to succeed, I got to succeed, I got to-"
But then it was like, "Oh, but what if I do,
and what if I'm not good enough?"
Couldn't face that.
I couldn't face it anymore.
I became a flight attendant.
I was a personal trainer, I taught Pilates,
I taught English as a foreign language.
I went back to college, I studied clown.
I kept trying to grasp at things.
Maybe this will make me feel complete.
Maybe this will make me feel whole.
And none of it did.
None of it gave me that same drive and that same purpose
that wrestling did.
Then I was like, "Ah-
you'll never be able to truly move on
unless you find out."
Robbie Brookside was talent scout for WWE.
I had met him years earlier wrestling in the UK.
I call up Robbie Brookside I say,
"Hey Robbie, do you remember me, Rebecca Knox?"
Robbie was like, "I wondered what happened to you?"
And, uh, "We'd love to have you for this tryout."
- She said,
"Dad, I'm going for this and I'm not coming back."
But that was her determination, and you can't stop that.
All you can do is encourage it.
- And I knew,
there is no way they're going to say no to me.
- WWE Performance Center is everything that I pictured
a wrestling school would be when I was 15,
and this is where they grow talent.
And so I went for my tryout, and I knew, like, there was just a
gut feeling that there is no way they're going to say no to me.
I will die before I quit.
And I got it, I got it.
I think I was one of one of two people that got it.
And, uh, and almost immediately my confidence went
from a ten to a -300.
I felt insecure about not being the cookie cutter star
that other people were.
You didn't look at me and say, "That's a star."
- Roll.
- We were all fighting, you know, to be in that spot in NXT.
And we're fighting our own insecurities and trying
to find a character.
And that's-
So, it was like growing pains together.
- I was willing to do anything to-
to keep my job.
- Becky Lynch, making her an NXT debut.
- What is this?
She's doing a jig.
- Well, she is Irish from Dublin.
- She's very leprechaun like.
- Here I was at 27, going out there doing a silly Irish dance.
Being like, this is my introduction to the world.
Push me to the moon why don't ya?
I was like, "All right, maybe that's not the one.
What else am I?"
- The issue was that we still didn't know who Becky Lynch was.
Charlotte Flair had this great advantage of being a Flair
You knew, this is nature boy Ric Flair's daughter.
Sasha Banks came out with the rings on and the music,
and she was the boss.
Becky Lynch came out and although she had a unique look
and had all the skill in the world, who was she?
- This is my empire.
And there is no one that is better than me.
So welcome, Devin.
Welcome everyone to N-Becks-T.
- But eventually we got it.
She's Becky Lynch.
She's someone who loves this the way we love it.
- One of the most energized Divas you will find.
She is fun to watch.
- Her in-ring work was really good, but also her
personality was very charming.
She was the girl that went in there and tried her hardest and
that was like, relatable.
- Becky Lynch is exactly the breath of fresh air that this
Diva's division needs.
- The passion never left her.
Whatever she's doing.
She gives it 100% or not at all.
- Women are making their mark, and it is time for us to make
a change in the Divas division right now.
When I announced Becky Lynch and The Boss Sasha Banks
and Charlotte Flair,
I mean, the crowd was going nuts.
- Three women who have revolutionized NXT.
- All three of these characters were being introduced to that
main roster WWE audience at the same time.
But honestly, Charlotte Flair and Sasha Banks were portrayed
as much bigger stars than Becky Lynch was.
- My spolight Becky.
- I do believe that WWE had their stars in mind
who was going to come out of it on top, you know?
- You're never going to be a Divas champ.
You know why?
Because you're the least relevant of all of us.
- I wasn't pegged to be a star.
I was not pegged to be a main eventer.
I wasn't pegged to be a champion,
and I wasn't supposed to be in that Triple Crown match.
- There you see the three women who will battle tonight for
the WWE Women's Championship.
- It was supposed to just be Charlotte and Sasha,
that was the intention, but I had really gained momentum
as a sympathetic babyface.
- She had fought to be in that storyline.
Just makes sense to be a triple threat, and I don't think that
night could have been possible without everyone,
played a specific role.
- Becky tapped out.
[bell ringing]
Becky tapped out.
Charlotte retains the title.
- I'm at Comic Con. San Diego. The Comic Con of all Comic Cons.
They come over to me, they go, "Oh my gosh,
we want to show you this."
It's commemorative of that amazing WrestleMania 32 match.
And I'm like, "Oh, wow."
And they open it up and it's Charlotte and Sasha,
and I go, "Oh, wow. Wow, that's-that's cool."
- I was like,
"Oh, I-I was in that match too."
It felt metaphorical that this was what was going
to happen from now on.
- That can really screw with you to feel like the company's
not behind you.
You have to have a lot of conversations with yourself
to be like, "All right, why do I have to overcome all of this?"
- She had asked me what she should do different
or what I thought.
- Mom's going out there.
The crowd were always giving me great reactions when the crowd's
already behind you.
But do I need to change or-
Or do they need to change?
Like does the booking need to change?
And I suppose it was a bit of both.
- For about two years,
I had gone from the pinnacle from being one of the headline
acts at WrestleMania 32, stealing the damn show
to kind of getting lost in the shuffle.
I just wasn't a priority.
I have put this division and every division that I have been
in on my shoulders and lifted it as high as I possibly can,
and my rewards?
That I get to sit backstage and I'll-I'll eat some catering.
- It felt like in a lot of ways, they could only put
attention on one person at a time.
So at that point it was Charlotte that they were
putting all the attention on.
- I was in line for a single opportunity title shot
at-at SummerSlam.
- Becky Lynch faces off against Carmella for the SmackDown
Women's Championship at SummerSlam.
- And in the audience eyes, I was finally getting
what I deserved.
I was getting a singles match at SummerSlam, at a big event,
and so it was huge.
And then Charlotte was inserted into the match.
The crowd were pissed off for me.
- The following contest, scheduled for one fall,
is a triple threat match for the SmackDown Women's Championship.
- Match happens I have the armbar on Carmella.
Charlotte hits me with her move from behind-
[crowd counts "one, two, three"]
-pins me.
The crowd's on their feet.
They're anticipating this.
They're waiting for me to say I'm tired of this [bleep].
And then I hug her and they boo.
- Oh, Becky.
- I slap the [bleep] out of her.
[crowd cheers]
- Becky, that-that's your best friend.
- Come on Becky. Come on Becky.
- Was, was the best friend.
- One of my favorite moments in this era of WWE.
Because it's a moment where the fans are all on the same page.
[crowd chants "Becky"]
Finally, Becky Lynch is taking her spot.
- The crowd loved it.
They loved me being an [bleep].
And it became this revolutionary thing.
- Tonight, a friendship cast aside.
- Oh, wait-
- Spear from the Queen of-
- Becky turned her around.
turn around by Lynch.
And that's it.
Becky Lynch has won the title.
- I posted a picture on social media that said "I am The Man."
And that was it.
It caught fire.
The next week there were signs everywhere.
Beating Charlotte Flair,
the most decorated woman in WWE, proved I am The Man.
- She just kind of like flipped the switch, you know?
She was like, Becky Lynch the superstar, to
as soon as she called herself The Man, you could just feel
the-the shift in her.
- I wasn't meant to be the talk of the entire industry,
but here I am.
- Well, she is brutally honest.
Yes.
Yeah.
Brutally honest.
The Man in the States is the top dog, if you like.
- Becky Lynch's popularity was growing and growing and growing,
but there was one single moment that really cemented her
position as The Man.
- The Man has arrived.
- Becky Lynch is marching down to the ring.
You want to be The Man?
Wait a minute.
Who the hell?
What the-
The SmackDown women's division is attacking Monday Night Raw.
- All out Assault from the SmackDown women's division.
- Monday Night Raw ends with a massive brawl.
Becky Lynch gets in that ring, and while all this is going on,
she takes a punch to the face, breaking her nose.
- A chaotic scene here.
Becky Lynch all busted up.
- I got punched.
I'm somehow out on my feet.
- I- Becky may have a broken nose.
Obviously, she doesn't care.
- Never see women with blood on their faces.
It just doesn't happen that often.
It went viral.
It caught a lot of traction with mainstream media outlets.
In a lot of ways, it got the fans behind her more
than ever before.
- I remember my brother texting me and saying,
"I think we should spend Christmas with dad this year.
Dad has lung cancer."
And all of the- all of the wrestling stuff seemed
a little less important.
- It's like time hasn't passed.
And it was like it was yesterday.
You know, just straight back in.
- And I remember seeing him and telling him, "WrestleMania this
year I'd love to bring you over for it."
He goes, "Well, we'll see."
I said, "We'll see what?"
"We'll see if I'm still here."
And I remember being.
This Christmas it's-
It's a special one, and just being able to spend time with my
dad and-and being able to see my friends and-and my family
because you never know what next year's going to bring
To main event WrestleMania,
it's every wrestler's dream.
- WWE had never had women in the main event, but Becky Lynch and
her rise made it impossible for fans to want anything besides
her match to be in the main event of that year's
WrestleMania.
- I don't care who I have to beat anymore, whether it's the
Golden Girl, Charlotte Flair or whether it's Ronda Rousey
at WrestleMania, I am reclaiming everything they have
tried to take from me to give to someone else.
Got a phone call from Vince McMahon and he said,
"Congratulations, you're gonna main event WrestleMania."
- Oh, did it hit ya?
You-you get a little?
- It's very large.
[chuckles]
- That's a big old place.
- I met Colby Lopez.
My first time on the road.
We were on separate shows, so we didn't even see each
other that often,
but I always look forward to seeing him.
- You know, we start talking, hanging out a little bit more,
just talking, flirting a little bit more.
And the first time we kissed was Royal Rumble weekend.
- He'd been flirting with me so much so it was like, "All right,
put up or shut up.
You know, you gonna be about it,
or you just gonna talk about it.
Go on."
It's pretty freaking incredible.
It's one thing to look out at it now when it's empty
and it's not that intimidating.
It's going to be a different story when you're looking out
and this is all filled like right up to the top,
every single seat filled.
Everybody's looking forward to the main event.
I'm the main event.
[laughing]
[Becky Lynch's music]
- And here comes The Man.
- It was after midnight, I think, by the time
I made my entrance.
Despite the fact that the crowd had been sitting there for eight
hours, they were still willing me to win.
They knew that they were witnessing history.
- For the first time ever.
Women are in the main event as Becky Lynch marches to the ring
tonight to take on Charlotte Flair and Ronda Rousey.
- With both championships on the line,
this is what it's all about, winner take all.
- an electric atmosphere here tonight in our
main event at WrestleMania.
And a big right by Becky Lynch
and Becky right to Rousey.
- Oh, got her.
- You could feel not only just hear them pulling for Becky
but they wanted it.
They needed it.
- The "Let's go Becky" chants.
Thunderous here.
Piper's pit.
Becky.
Shoulders down.
[bell ringing]
- She did it.
Becky Lynch.
- Becky Lynch is the winner take all
and is both
Raw And SmackDown Women's Champion.
- One of the things I love about life is to see people succeed
at what they do because of their passion,
and she has that in spades.
- I really made a cognitive effort
to enjoy it.
It's about enjoying the journey because
that's where all the fun is.
[clapping]
[cheering]
Oh my God.
- She went through a lot that day, a lot to get there,
but it was really a special moment
and it was awesome to be able to be there for her.
I love you.
- I love you.
- I don't know that you ever feel like you made it
You don't ever stop to smell the roses.
You just keep on going.
- Week after week, month after month.
Becky Lynch is on a roll unlike possibly anybody else in WWE.
- Life is happening quick and fast and
incredible and chaotic.
- She just blew up and she became the face of the company.
She's been carrying that ever since.
- Every opportunity
was coming to me, like getting to work with The Rock.
- The Man and the Great One side by side,
- Being on Billions.
Thank you, thank you.
Being in a Sportscenter commercial,
being on the cover of ESPN.
- She's actually got 3 million followers on Instagram.
That's more than half the population of Ireland.
- Look at me.
I'm deadly.
It was just wild.
And in the midst of all of that, I also got engaged
to the love of my life.
- She was game.
Big win, big win for me.
- Okay,so-
How pregnant are you right now?
- Six weeks and three days.
- What's the size of your baby?
- It's the size of a sweet pea.
Freaking insane that something the size
of a sweet pea can just make you feel so [bleep].
I think it was March 27th that I found out that I was pregnant.
This is something that I've wanted my whole life, but, uh,
then you realize just how much it's going to change everything.
I don't know, maybe just a little bit of reality that,
okay, I'm going to have to walk away from this for a while.
There were so many questions and no concrete answers.
You never know how you're going to come back.
If you're going to come back, if you're going to want to come
back, what's that going to look like?
And as happy as you are to be the champion,
I might be a little bit happier.
So you go and be a warrior,
'cause I'm going to go be a mother.
I had my ambitions for what I wanted in my career,
but I also wanted to- to find somebody that
I love and settle down and have a family at some point.
Why can't I do both?
- You good?
- No.
And I shouldn't have to worry about that.
The crazy wrestling business that we've become accustomed
to that says like,
"No. You can't do that.
You have to wait until you're done."
Well, I don't want to be done.
[cheering]
- It's a lot of relief and happiness,
and now we just got to go figure how to uh
Tackle this new thing that we've never done, parenting.
- I love you.
- Aw, I love you so much.
I'm so proud of you.
- People kept asking me,
they were like, "How are you going to top 2019?"
I think this kind of tops it.
The first few weeks I was quite worried about,
"Is this the biggest mistake I've ever made, like-"
-have I lost all of my momentum?
What does this mean for everything else?"
Oh wow.
- That's- That's it right there?
- There's your baby.
- Oh my God.
- How's that?
- That's crazy.
[laughing]
I suppose at the end of the day, there's nothing
you can do about that, you know, so you kind of have
to make peace with it all.
And whether it was the right decision or the wrong decision,
it was the decision.
And you're going to be inviting a human into the world.
It's hard to explain.
I just feel like like I just don't have any push anymore.
Like my head isn't tired, but like, my body just feels
like it just doesn't have that extra gear, you know?
- She was at the gym every day, staying in shape and-and trying
to find ways to, you know, plot her return.
So it was it was never ending.
Like she cannot be contained, not even for a second.
We're 30, almost 35 weeks tomorrow.
Or 30?
35.
And, uh, yeah, the workouts have slowed.
- I'm still doing 'em
- And she's still moving.
Let's not-let's not take for-for granted the fact that she's
still moving at 35 weeks pregnant,
doing squats like an animal.
Yeah, I mean, she was embarking on this journey,
this new path in her life and freshly laying tracks,
if you will.
She was kind of venturing out into the unknown one more time.
Were at the hospital.
It is currently, what time is it?
You can see the clock
- See it is 8:18.
- 8:18 p.m. on December the 3rd.
- 3rd, yep.
- Um, we'll see what happens.
- Yep.
- All right.
- 24 hours of excruciating labor later.
There she was.
[baby crying]
Oh.
Oh, baby.
- Oh my God, oh my God.
It was the best little noise I've ever heard.
Oh and they just placed her on my chest
and it was the coolest,
coolest thing in the world.
Hello.
Her name is Roux Quin Lopez.
Found Roux on the list then, and I loved it.
And I wanted something to honor my dad.
So he put Quin in there.
I still can't believe we made her.
- Yeah.
We did.
- Yeah.
It's a lot- it was a lot of stress, but it was also a-
a pretty fun, exciting experience.
I mean, she's always had kind of like a motherly instinct about
her, but that has intensified greatly since
she's had a daughter.
And so I think just seeing that part kick in has been
pretty fun to watch.
- Hi, hi, hi.
At that time, my dad started to go downhill.
My brother told me, you know, like-
like we don't know how long he has left.
I was like, "How are you doing, dad?" and-
-he said, "I'm not doing too well, Becks."
And he-he never told me.
And that he wasn't doing well.
He was-
-and then he said, "I'm on my way out, Becks."
On Wednesday night at, uh, 10 p.m., my brother called.
Um.
To say that he had passed.
The one thing everybody tells me is he just would have loved to
have met Roux.
He's real happy to be a grandad.
My dad was the one that took me to plays, and my dad was the
one that took me to the movies.
My dad was the one that encouraged me to write every day
and encouraged me to read and tell stories.
His biggest accomplishment was being a dad, you know, and that
was the thing that he was most proud of.
- And, uh, knows the thing that he was best at, too.
- I want to be able to support
her the way that he supported us.
- Oh, is this it?
It's the first one back.
- Yeah, I guess so.
- Ah ha, here we go.
[bleep]
Tuck that chin.
[bleep]
That already gave me a headache.
- Yeah, it might be the caffeine.
- Yeah.
- I anticipate that it will be a fair adjustment getting back
into wrestling, especially now with this whole other more
important entity.
- First few days, I think there was a lot of frustration,
and she was worried that she wouldn't be able to do what she
had done before and live up to the expectations that she felt
like people might have for her, or maybe
that she had for herself.
It's easy to fall into the trap of feeling like you're obsolete.
- I'm training, I've been getting in the ring,
I've been taking bumps again.
That felt good.
- See?
- That felt good.
Felt like wrestling, right?
- That felt good, yeah.
- You know, and she's got a new body.
You know, when you're a woman and you have a child,
like things are not in the same place they used to be and
you know, your body doesn't work the same way.
And she was breastfeeding as well.
- I'd kind of passed that pain threshold and was on the other
side, but I'm just ready.
I'm ready to go.
But there was one more thing I still needed to take care of
while I still had the time off.
- By the power vested in me by the great state of Hawaii,
I now, pronounce you guys married.
[cheering]
Now you may kiss.
We're supposed to get married in the summer of 2020,
but then Covid happened and everything got pushed.
You look so pretty.
What an angel.
But it was great.
It was just super low maintenance,
super easy going, super chill.
Now it was time, after 15 months away.
It was finally time for my comeback.
- Welcome WWE Universe here in Las Vegas at the biggest
party of the summer.
- It's been a wild two years.
But, I think once- once we get tonight over
with, maybe it'll start to feel a bit more normal for me.
- Yeah, you're a big crazy person?
- I'd be gearing up for coming back at SummerSlam.
I'd been training,
been getting in the ring, I'd been taking bumps again.
I'm just ready.
I'm ready to go.
- Does it feel real?
- Hell yeah, it feels real.
I'm excited, I'm excited.
I'm nervous.
I'm [bleep] nervous as hell.
I'm real excited.
- I knew that she was going to come back and try
to reclaim her throne.
I just didn't expect for her to come back at SummerSlam.
[Becky Lynch's music]
- What?
- Wait a minute.
No no no no no no no, no, it can't be.
- Yes.
- One of the biggest stars on the planet.
Becky Lynch is back.
- The first moment the crowd lost it.
I was just over the moon, so I really soaked that up.
- I believe Bianca has accepted the challenge from Becky Lynch.
It's official.
The bell rings, and here we go.
Belair-Lynch for the SmackDown Women's Title and Becky Lynch
taking care of business with a Manhandle Slam.
Cover.
Lynch wins the title.
- Within five minutes of being back,
I have my championship back.
I was back on top.
Thank you.
Oh, I'm back.
- There's nothing that stands in her way.
Any time she sets her mind to wanting to do something,
it just gets done.
- Being able to come back and take that back and-
and not lose a step.
It felt, uh, felt pretty amazing.
My little angel.
I came back and normally getting photos.
You're doing interviews, you're just relaxing.
But I had to go be mom now.
Now my little baby was there.
She needed me.
She needed to have a bath and go to bed.
So that was what I came back and did.
Gosh, if anybody's traveled with a baby,
I think they know the challenges of it, but it's amazing.
It's the best she's gotten to see the whole world before she
can even remember the whole world.
- Just seeing her now play with Roux and she always has her
backstage and just the way that she is as a mom,
and the way that Roux looks at her and is so attached to her.
- Ah, choo, choo, choo.
Ah, do, do, do.
- Yeah, I don't know how she does it.
- We're at a time in WWE where we're in the locker room and we
look on the floor and we see wrestling boots, but we also see
a diaper beside it, and I think that's amazing.
Are you hungry?
Does she want some food?
- You want food?
You want some food?
She's such a terrible eater, my God.
My God, I found-
Your daughter also?
- Oh, she's awful.
- They say you can't have it all, right?
It's a very cool thing to see what she's been able to do,
and to be able to show.
our daughter that, as well, is a huge driver
and a huge motivator for her.
- She's she's doing NXT, she's doing Raw
She's being a mom.
She's writing a book.
She just doesn't- she doesn't want to stop.
She enjoys it.
- Learning how to write a book is quite intimidating.
Knowing what's important and what's not.
But when I'm out there taking risks,
that's always when I do my best work.
- WrestleMania.
Welcome to the Big Time.
- I think Becky can achieve anything
that she sets her mind to, and she will, without question,
far exceed her own expectations.
- It is thunderous in here.
- People love Becky, the person,
and so they're going to cheer for her and whatever she does.
- Dreams don't happen by accident.
Becky has worked and earned,
everything that she has got.
And I just wish her all the happiness in the world.
- She's done so much, but I feel like
she's always wanting to do more
In many ways, it feels like she's just getting started,
and I just don't think there's anything she can't do.
- At the end of the day, you have to trust yourself.
When I've trusted myself,
magic has happened.
- Becky Lynch said earlier that
"This is everything I've worked for."
- She is determined beyond anyone I know.
And that's how she's gotten where she's gotten.
- The Man with a leg drop.
- It's the ulitmate testament to how far
determination and grit will get you.
- She's the best wife, the best mother,
the best friend, I've ever had.
Roux's going to have some big shoes to fill,
but she'll have a great role model to look up to in her mom.
- I was never really meant to be here.
It comes down to surviving,
turning them into part of the journey.
I was not born to be a champion.
I fought to be a champion.
- Hehe, look at your little mug face.
Whatcha doing?
- Dance with me.
Oh, well Mama's-
[laughing]
Oh, I dance with you, pretend?
- Yeah.
- Oh, okay.
- Yay.
- Yay.
