Becky Lynch Wants To Be Cancelled

Talking to Cody Rhodes on his What Do You Wanna Talk About podcast, she opened up about a heel in wrestling and its evolving meaning in the sport.

“I really love being a bad guy. I feel like I do more good being bad, you know?” she said. “I’m a better wrestler that way. I’m better at making people look good. I’m not a cool wrestler. I don’t have cool moves. I don’t like you, don’t do anything.”

Lynch recently turned heel on the April 21, 2025, episode of WWE RAW, immediately after becoming Women’s Tag Team Champion with Lyra Valkyria. In a surprising turn of events, she attacked Valkyria, revealing she’d orchestrated previous backstage events, marking her fourth heel turn in WWE.

She finds herself lucky not to have a “babyface”, which would apparently make it harder for her in the WWE. In her words, they have to be selfish and focus on looking great inside the ring, rather than becoming political. On the contrary, as a heel, her job is less stressful, as she only has to focus on making them look cool.

Lynch has no qualms about being the villain, even if that means that she would be cancelled. It is a known fact that she does not shy away from controversy, including her recent comments about Ozzy Osbourne, which led to her facing criticism from his daughter, Kelly Osbourne, who called her a “disrespectful dirtbag”.

But she is the least bit worried about being cancelled for her borderline unhinged comments.

“Cancel me. Because I found that you really can’t be canceled unless you’re a piece of s---. If you just said something dumb one time, that’s not enough,” he said. “I want enemies. I started to dare. Go ahead, please cancel me.”

“Disrespectful Dirtbag”

Lynch’s comments at the recent live broadcast of RAW were rather unhinged, and that’s putting it lightly. Talking about why she wasn’t wrestling in Birmingham (Ozzy Osbourne’s hometown), she stated that the only good thing that came out of the city “died a month ago.” And unsurprisingly, her comment was met with clamorous booing from the audience members.

This also did not sit well with his daughter, Kelly, who took to Instagram to say, “@beckylynchfanll, you are a disrespectful dirtbag! Birmingham would not pi-- on you if you were on fire. #birminghamforever shame on the @wwe for allowing such things to be said about my father and his home!!!”
