Lynch becomes 1st WWE Superstar to grace cover of ESPN The Magazine
Becky Lynch continues to make history for WWE.
"The Man" became the first WWE Superstar to land a cover of ESPN The Magazine, appearing in the upcoming "Blockbuster" issue alongside actress Alison Brie of the Netflix wrestling comedy "Glow."
Lynch was also interviewed for the issue, during which she touched on her main-event appearance at WrestleMania 35 with Ronda Rousey and Charlotte Flair.
"What I wanted coming into this career was for women's wrestling to be the coolest thing on TV," she told ESPN The Magazine's Allison Glock. "I wanted to change the term from 'divas' to 'women,' which we did three years ago. And I wanted to headline the main event at WrestleMania. But I also wanted the audience to demand it, not because we were women but because they cared about our story more than any other story. And they did. Our women's main event was at the end of a seven-hour show, and everybody stayed. That makes me super proud."
The issue hits newsstands Friday.
