The women in the industry got a chance to change the landscape when the audience was tired of the Divas Era. In the coming years, WWE and other wrestling companies slowly incorporated changes to their product and gave the female talent enough time and space on their shows to showcase their talent.

In an appearance on Something's Burning with Bert Kreischer, the multi-time WWE Women's Champion recalled how female talent used to dress up extra nice if they came to the shows. The practice was common, especially for female talent, to make them more aesthetically pleasing to others in the company, and while she wasn't okay with it, times were different back then, and The Man wasn't a fan.

"At the time, when you were a girl in WWE, you always had to go to the shows in nice dresses. I was an extra. I was in NXT. So, you had to be as hoey as possible, right? You had to be dressed up to your a**, as low as it could be. Like, this was the aesthetics. I didn't suit the aesthetic, but anyway," Lynch said.

Becky Lynch has come a long way as a performer and has spent over a decade in the Stamford-based promotion as a talent. Luckily, the company has cleaned up its act under the new ownership, and instances like this have become a tale from the past.

Becky Lynch reached new heights in the Stamford-based promotion in 2019 and has remained one of the key figures in the women's division. The Man is set to enter her third Women's WarGames match in San Diego in the coming days.
