Eric Bischoff Names Becky Lynch As 'The Best Character In Wrestling Right Now'
Lynch returned at WWE SummerSlam 2021
Dec 6, 2021
Eric Bischoff has named WWE's Becky Lynch as the 'best character in wrestling right now'.
Former SmackDown Executive Director Bischoff is full of praise for 'Big Time Becks', who has made the switch to a heel character since returning to WWE at SummerSlam 2021 in August.
Bischoff noted that Lynch was the primary reason he tunes into WWE Monday Night Raw, describing her character as 'authentic'.
Speaking on his 83 Weeks Podcast, Bischoff said: "She is the best character in wrestling right now. I mean, she is so authentic. You know, I was thinking about this. It’s funny you brought her name up. I was thinking about her a little while ago.
"Somebody asked me a question; it was in an earlier interview about what's missing? Why doesn't wrestling feel the way it felt before. I think it's authenticity.
"There are so very few authentic-feeling characters, especially in WWE, because everything is so well-crafted and polished, except for Becky. Even her social media, there is something special about her as a performer. She really gets it. So, I watch her."
Lynch is scheduled to defend the Raw Women's Championship against Liv Morgan on this week's Monday Night Raw.
