Why Becky Lynch should win the Women's Royal Rumble

The road to WrestleMania begins at the Royal Rumble. Last year, the first ever Women's Royal Rumble took place and Asuka became the inaugural winner. Royal Rumble winners go on to WrestleMania to challenge the World Champion of their choice, and hence this year, Becky Lynch is the most logical winner of the Women's Royal Rumble.

"The Man", Becky Lynch is a unique anti-hero character, who is not afraid to go toe to toe with anyone, having recently come face to face with one of the greatest of all time, John Cena. Recent storyline development has teased tension between Ronda Rousey, Charlotte and Becky Lynch. Since "The Irish Lasskicker" invaded Raw along with other women from Smackdown Live, there has been some heat between Ronda and Becky.

They couldn't have their match against each other at Survivor Series, and honestly, it is a blessing in disguise. With Ronda costing Becky her championship at the TLC PPV, it makes sense for them to have a feud against each other for Ronda's title. Ronda Rousey is short of challengers who could actually dethrone her, and Becky seems like the only credible superstar, apart from Charlotte.

No one on the Raw roster currently seems like a threat to Ronda Rousey. "The Man" vs "The Baddest Woman on the Planet" could be one of the highlights going into WrestleMania, and Becky winning the Royal Rumble is the first step towards it. A confrontation on Raw before the Rumble with Becky claiming she is coming for the title would be a great way to go ahead. She could claim how she will win the Royal Rumble, and how she would come straight after the Raw Women's title.

She could enter the Rumble early, maybe even the first entrant, and own the match, to gain a decisive victory. Ronda Rousey vs Becky Lynch for the Raw Women's title could be one of the most high profile matches on the WrestleMania card, and with the personalities they have, the match could even be a No-DQ match with both tearing the house down with their performance.

With the teased tension between the two, Becky winning the Rumble and going on to challenge Ronda for the prized Raw Women's title is a story that needs to be told.
