What's the story?
WWE Hall of Famer Booker T recently appeared on WWE Watch Along during Stomping Grounds last weekend.
Booker heaped praise on Becky Lynch, and proceeded to compare her with The Rock.
In case you didn't know...
It's safe to say at this point in time that Becky Lynch is one of the most popular Superstars in recent history. Her incredible journey from being an afterthought on the SmackDown Live roster, to winning the main event of WrestleMania 35, is nothing but inspirational.
Although Lynch lost her SmackDown Live Women's Title at Money In The Bank last month, she still holds the Raw belt and has successfully defended it on several occasions. Recently, she was seen taking on a more prominent role as she came out to the rescue of her real-life boyfriend Seth Rollins during the closing moments of Stomping Grounds.
