Eric Bischoff recently appeared as a guest on the After The Bell with Corey Graves podcast for an in-depth interview covering all things pro wrestling.
During the appearance on the program, the former WCW Executive Vice President was asked which performer on the WWE roster stands out the most to him.
Featured below is an excerpt from the interview where he explains why "Big Time Becks" is that person.
“Becky Lynch. There’s something about Becky Lynch. I spent a minute as an executive in WWE with SmackDown, and before I even interviewed for that position, I was tracking Becky Lynch because of the way she used social media. There was something so authentic about Becky’s social media and her character.
"They were one and the same. I really started noticing this back in early 2019 before she really was elevated to the point she is today. I thought, man, she’s got it. She understands how to tell that story on social media. Very few people do. Everybody uses social media, myself included. Very few people do it really, really well, and Becky did. I became a fan of Becky Lynch because of her social media. Now that I’ve become a fan of her and her character, of all the athletes that I see, of all the performers that I see in WWE, she’s the one I pay closest attention to.”
