5 reasons why Becky Lynch will win at WrestleMania 35
3. Leader in merchandise sales
If success is measured in merchandise, then Becky Lynch has already become the most successful wrestler in WWE as she sits comfortably atop the leader board for merchandise sales. Why is this relevant? For a few months a debate raged over whether Lynch could draw anything other than crowd reactions with her rising popularity. The proof is in the numbers — large dollar numbers.
As it turns out she is the first female performer in WWE history to rank No. 1 in merchandise sales joining top sellers like Roman Reigns, AJ Styles, Seth Rollins and even John Cena. These Superstars have all been handed the torch as WWE’s top guy, each recognized with the honor of being champion and the responsibilities that come with it.
Lynch’s recent rise to the top in terms of booking and merchandise sales puts her in the same company as these other men, and for good reason — she is “The Man” after all. Putting the belt (or belts in this case) on Lynch at WrestleMania 35 shows WWE’s faith that she is the draw they need and making “The Man” champion is best for business.
