In a recent interview with Bill Apter on 1WrestlingVideo, WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus shed light on Becky Lynch sending her flowers after her mother passed away. Lynch portrays a self-centered heel character on television, and broke character by sending her condolences to Stratus upon her loss.

"And I've seen the people come out and support me like I needed to, you know, even you [Apter] reached out to me, as it happened, and even someone who reaches out three weeks later. Becky's not as b*tchy as she seems. She sent me some flowers, but it was weeks after my mom passed. But it was not necessarily a programmable thing like, 'Oh, you had a death in the family, here's flowers.' It was like she was thinking of me. She sent it to me. And so, to get that and just to know that people are still thinking of you was really, really nice and meant a lot," Stratus said.

Becky Lynch claims a former WWE Champion inspired her to get into wrestling with his promos

In a recent appearance on First We Feast's Heat Eaters, Becky Lynch surprisingly claimed that Mick Foley's mic work was what inspired her the most to get into wrestling.

"I think it was the storytelling. I remember watching it when we were way younger, like, Ultimate Warrior. And then we fell out of it. And then my brother started watching it around the Attitude Era, and Mick Foley would come on and cut these promos, and I would just kind of be transfixed. It was the pagentry. It was less the wrestling in the beginning," said Lynch.

It is safe to say that Big Time Becks has incorporated her inspiration into her own character, as she is considered one of the best superstars on the mic in WWE right now.
