Becky Lynch: The Man
Becky Lynch: The Man: Not Your Average Average Girl | Rebecca Quin
4 posts | 2 read
This compelling and deeply personal memoir from WWE superstar Rebecca Quin—a.k.a. The Man, a.k.a. Becky Lynch—delves into her earliest wrestling days, her scrappy beginnings, and her meteoric rise to fame. By age seven, Rebecca Quin, now known in the ring as Becky Lynch, was already defying what the world expected of her. Raised in Dublin, Ireland in a devoutly Catholic family, Rebecca constantly invented new ways to make her mother worry—roughhousing with the neighborhood kids, hosting secret parties while her parents were away, enrolling in a warehouse wrestling school, nearly breaking her neck and almost kneecapping a WWE star before her own wrestling career even began—and she was always in search of a thrilling escape from the ordinary. Rebecca’s deep love of wrestling as a child set her on an unlikely path. With few female wrestlers to look to for guidance, Rebecca pursued a wrestling career hoping to change the culture and move away from the antiquated disrespect so often directed at the elite female athletes that grace the ring. Even as a teenager, she knew that she would stop at nothing to earn a space among the greatest wrestlers of our time, and to pave a new path for female fighters. Culled from decades of journal entries, Rebecca’s memoir offers a raw, personal, and honest depiction of the complex woman behind the character Rebecca Quin plays on TV.

I like Becky but this memoir didn‘t go over for me. I wanted more detail & while I know some things have to remain mysterious there was plenty brushed off or sped through while analyzing the lead up in great detail -anything from matches to overcoming a mental health issue, there was more about unnamed fiancé #1 than Seth/Colby & I would have liked more about her mom life (may be biased I as a new mom). I liked the early years stuff though.

This is probably one of my favorite memoirs I‘ve listened to. I usually do the audiobook for memoirs because most of them are read by the author and I think that just adds to the experience. Becky Lynch is one of my favorite women in the WWE and I loved her book. She is humorous and definitely showed that while narrating her book. Her and Seth Rollins are like my favorite couple and I loved her describing how they came to be a couple. I loved it!

Read4life This is on my audio TBR. I‘m looking forward to it! 12mo
NikkiKey94 I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! It‘s definitely worth the listen! 12mo
