WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry gave his take on the current storyline between Becky Lynch and WWE SmackDown women’s Champion Charlotte Flair during a recent edition of Busted Open Radio on SiriusXM.
He also touched on how it seems that WWE fans are relating to Lynch over Flair. The former WWE World Heavyweight Champion stated that Flair was born to be great and came from greatness so her success is expected.
However, he pointed out how Lynch is the commonplace and her character comes across as someone who has struggled and came from nothing to the point where she worked hard to get where she is at now.
He noted that the fanbase of the company is people who work hard for a living. “The reason that this is an angle that we love so much is that we all identify with it,” Henry said.
