As the top babyface of the Raw Women's Division who's run wild over the likes of Charlotte, Asuka, Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler, Becky Lynch may be the closest thing WWE has to a modern day Hulk Hogan. However, just like in the later half of Hogan's career, the time may be perfect for "The Man" to turn heel and form her own version of the New World Order.
Now, Becky doesn't need to literally reform the nWo or become "Hollywood" Lynch per se, but the time is right for a faction-leading heel turn. With her real-life boyfriend turning heel and the Raw Women's Division feeling lackluster, WWE needs Becky Lynch to have a Bash at the Beach moment to awaken the women's roster and spice up both herself and Monday Night Raw.
After holding the Raw Women's Title for over a year and becoming the longest reigning Raw Women's Champion of all time, Becky Lynch's character has run its course. "The Man" really lost steam after her feud and victory over Ronda Rousey, and she hasn't been involved in any meaningful feuds since. With The WWE Universe noticeably losing interest in Becky Lynch, it's become a problem when Becky earning a pinfall over "The Queen of Spades" at WrestleMania 36 came as something of a surprise.
WWE has a Becky Lynch problem, and it will only be a matter of time before the fans completely turn on her. Her character is stale, her storylines are boring and her dominance on Raw has eliminated her portrayal as an underdog. If this pattern looks familiar, that's because fans have witnessed the same transformation in the "Monday Night Messiah."
With her real-life boyfriend, Seth Rollins, recently turning heel, what better time for Becky to follow in his footsteps. For Rollins, turning heel refreshed his character and actually acknowledged the negative fan reaction he was receiving. Likewise with Becky, WWE needs to acknowledge her dwindling fan support and turn her heel for the same reasons WWE turned Seth.
As a matter of fact, Becky could even join her boyfriend's faction, in what could be seen as a surprising Bash at the Beach heel turn moment. WWE couldn't keep from mentioning Seth and Becky's relationship when the news of it first broke. Now may be a good time to reintroduce this fact and have her join Seth's disciples. Becky could at first tease a feud with her boyfriend only to join them, giving Becky her Bash at the Beach moment.
However, Becky may need to be a leader rather than a disciple and create her own heel faction instead. Doing so would not only revitalize her character and acknowledge her growing negative reactions, but would breathe new life into a dying Raw Women's Division.
Right now, Raw's Women's Division is as directionless as ever, and The WWE Universe still waiting for something to happen with Nia Jax, Shayna Baszler and Liv Morgan. While others superstars like The IIconics barely exist, Becky Lynch turning heel and forming a heel stable would give these wasted superstars something to do. Not only would Becky's stable provide airtime for frequently unused talent, like Seth Rollins' stable did for Murphy and AOP, but the superstars that feud with Becky's "New World Order" can finally have some meaningful matches as well. Seeing how the nWo utilized the entire WCW roster, Becky's Lynch's faction can do the same for the entire Raw Women's Division.
Of course, running roughshod over the Raw Roster isn't new to Lynch, but as a heel, this can play into her new role. While "The Man" and her alliance take control of Raw, imagine the benefits to the superstar that eventually manages to usurp her. With there being so many opportunities to revitalize characters while creating new ones, WWE turning Becky is just too good to pass up.
Certainly, there would be resistance from fans who have pressed hard to get Becky Lynch to where she is today, and a heel turn could be seen as undoing everything she's accomplished. However, there are too many positive creative benefits to this turn. No one can deny Becky's support is shrinking and that fans are more interested in Shayna Baszler as the shiny new object of the Women's Division. The time is now for WWE to shock the wrestling world with her heel turn. It would be a shot in the arm to "The Man," but, most of all, for fans of dominant heel factions, it would be "just too sweet."
