Becky Lynch Says She Doesn’t Actually Use Twitter/X

Becky Lynch

Becky Lynch has admitted that whilst she uses Twitter, she doesn’t have it on her phone and explained why people should trust their instincts when it comes to the opinion of others.

There’s been a recent change of plans for Becky Lynch and Trish Stratus. They’d expected to do battle at SummerSlam, however the rematch will now take place a couple of weeks after. Lynch and Stratus have both now spoken on the subject.

However, Lynch has also opened on the fact she doesn’t keep Twitter, now under the name X, on her phone. In a discussion with Sports Media with Richard Deitsch, she explained the process for finding out opinions on social media.

I have a guy on the WWE Social Media Team. He has my Twitter information. I will say, say this and he will put that out. Then I’ll say, ‘What is the response?’ He’ll say, ‘Good’ or, ‘People aren’t really buying it’, so that way it’s my words, but I’m protected from it, if that makes sense. So I don’t have Twitter on my phone. I’m able to put stuff out into the world and then see whether things are positive or negative without getting sucked into individual opinions and things that may affect my performance.

“Trust Your Instincts”

Becky Lynch also discussed how she tries to limit hearing some of these opinions, as they will always have an influence on you even if you try to make sure they don’t.

I try to avoid comments. I try to avoid dirt sheets because I think of myself as an artist. I do think of myself as an artist and I think when you are being bombarded by opinions, good or bad, it takes an effect on you and one way or the other, whether you’re mentally strong enough to say, ‘Well that doesn’t bother me’, somewhere it lives.

It lives in your head, and especially when it’s the negative stuff, it will live in your head. But even the good stuff, you know, like what brought you to the dance doesn’t always keep you at the dance, you know? So you have to be able to adapt. You have to be able to trust your instincts and go with that.
