Becky Lynch irked by Jon Jones comments

Becky Lynch On Why She Was "Irked" By Jon Jones' Recent WWE Comments - Wrestling Inc.

UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones was recently interviewed by Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated following his successful title defends against Dominick Reyes this past Saturday at UFC 247. During their conversation, Jones said that he's open to the idea of working with WWE, calling it "inevitable".

WWE RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch was at SoFi Stadium on Tuesday as part of WWE's announcement of WrestleMania 37 in Inglewood, California on March 28, 2021. "The Man" was asked about Jones possibly working with WWE in the future. While Lynch was open to it if his heart is into it, she explained why his comments kind of bothered her.

"I think people think this is a cakewalk," Lynch said, via ESPN.com. "There's nothing like what we do. It's not as simple as just walking in here. You have to make a name for yourself. And you have to be obsessed with this. You have to love this. This isn't a thing where you have one fight every six months. This is a thing where you are fighting three, four, sometimes seven days a week, 52 weeks a year. And for people to sometimes think it's an easy thing they can just stroll into, it kind of irks me. It irks me; it does. Because I love this business. I love it more than anything.


"If [Jones] loves it like I do, well, then come along. I'll show you the ropes. But if he doesn't, if he just wants to make some easy money, this ain't the way to do it."

Lynch is expected to defend the WWE RAW Women's Championship against Shayna Baszler at WrestleMania 36 on April 5, 2020 at the Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida.

And you have to be obsessed with this.

You have to love this.

This isn't a thing where you have one fight every six months.

This is a thing where you are fighting three, four, sometimes seven days a week, 52 weeks a year.

Wrestlers have such an inferiority complex when it comes to combat sports....

I can see why she feels that way. MMA fighters have been looking at WWE as a retirement home lately and Vince has had no problem accommodating them.

If I had to take bumps and travel 3 or 4 nights a week and all these MMA fighters just kept waltzing in, I'd feel a certain way too.

I'm sure we'll get Seth Rollins opinion on this before the week ends.

I think that comes from people questioning their toughness. MMA fighters don't do it but MMA fans do it all the time.

People have known to a varying degree that wrestling was scripted since the 30s but it wasn't until UFC blew up that people started questioning their toughness.

Act likes Jon Jones wouldn't give your company the most buzz its had in fukking years.

Act like there aren't a number of wrestlers who only wrestle a couple times a year

This bytch




Also I'm all for a Jon Jones wrestling run if he can still move by the time he makes the jump. He been looking a bit lethargic tho in his last couple of fights. Gonna need them discus elbows from out of nowhere on deck
