Becky Lynch Says She Will Turn Heel When People Least Expect It, GFW Update

Becky Lynch has been on a roll these past few months. She became the first ever SmackDown Women’s Champion at Backlash back in September, and she’s gained a whole lot of momentum since winning the title. Becky is currently the face of the Women’s division on the SmackDown brand, but it doesn’t seem like a Becky Lynch heel turn is out of the question.

The SmackDown Women’s Champion is a playable character in WWE 2K17, and she recently spoke to GamesRadar.com about her love of games and more. During the interview she noted that we could see a Becky Lynch heel turn in the future. When asked about a possible character change the SmackDown Women’s Champion said she’s ready to flip the switch when the time comes.

“Oh, 100 per cent. And [I’ll do it] when people least expect it! Mostly for social media: Twitter or Instagram becomes so much more fun when you can be boastful and say whatever you want. You can be so full of yourself and ridiculous when you’re a heel. And if I’m ever going to feud with Bayley again, you couldn’t have her be the heel. Actually, I would love to see Bayley heel though. Wouldn’t that be funny. What would she do? Kick puppies? I don’t know!”

Becky Lynch is set to team up with Alexa Bliss, Nikki Bella, Carmella and Naomi to take on Charlotte, Bayley, Nia Jax, Alicia Fox and Sasha Banks at Survivor Series.

Jeff Jarrett announced Global Force Wrestling back in 2014, but things have been quiet on the GFW front as of late.

Sonjay Dutt recently spoke to SportsKeeda.com, and he noted that GFW is still trying to secure a television deal, and he hopes that 2017 will be a big year for the company.

“I’m hoping that 2017 becomes a very big year for GFW.  Our primary goal coming up and since day one, has been to secure a television deal in North America.  What I’ve learned over the course of this year is that it’s not the easiest thing to do. Trying to get 52 weeks of first run programming on a major network domestically is a hard task and I can assure you that we are working diligently to make this a reality.”
